Shine Your Light . . . for ArtStacks and Art Journal Journey Monthly!

 Hi everyone!  I am here today sharing a project that I created for the ArtStacks.

I've made a mixed media art journal spread using one of ArtStacks' newest 'Artist Series' releases by Tamara Laporte:




To see this and all of the beautiful packs that are available, head over to ArtStacks!


Here's my art journal spread:

Tam’s new packs are absolutely amazing! I couldn’t resist creating with them, and this is just one of the results.


I started by making my background using watercolors and the tissue paper grid pattern from the Tissue Backgrounds pack. Then, I added the turquoise and green leaves printed on deli paper, the star printed on tissue paper, and the gorgeous tree printed on cardstock. All of these images are from Tam’s new Wonderful World pack.


To add a touch of whimsy, I included the fun images of the woman and the girl from the All Dressed Up pack. I also used some doodled images at the top and bottom of the pages and added an affirmation from the Tam's first Artist Series pack entitled Fabulous Faces


Finally, I added the die cut grass and stitching.


That’s it! I loved creating this art journal spread.


I am also linking my page up to April's theme at  Art Journal Journey Monthly:


This month is being hosted by Matilde from Craftowanie.

Her theme for June is "People."  She says "You can interpret my theme in many ways!  You can show a single person or a group of people on your page.  I am looking forward to seeing all of your projects!"

The "people" on my page are the images of the woman and the girl standing in front of the tree - both are from ArtStacks All Dressed Up pack.

I highly recommend checking out Art Journal Journey this month. You'll find incredible artwork created by talented artists from all over the globe there.  Plus, the community is super friendly and welcoming.

Thank you so much for stopping by my blog today.

Happy June!  Keep creating!

  4. I always love it when people sew pages. But of course I really love how you created this amazing two page spread. That tree is stunning. It would work for Pride Month, too. Thanks for another fabulous entry using Matilde's theme at AJJ.
