Believe . . . for ArtStacks and Art Journal Journey Monthly

 

 Hi everyone!  I am here today sharing another project that I made for ArtStacks!

I've made a hybrid, mixed media scrapbook page using ArtStacks' Artist Series packs by Birgit Koopsen.




Head over to the ArtStacks' shop to see everything that is included in these amazing packs!


Here is the page that I made:


I absolutely adore Birgit Koopsen’s Artist Series packs and wanted to create an art journal page using them. I started with a watercolor background and added some paint splatters for a fun touch. Next, I attached the printed tissue paper branch (from Brigit’s 
Forest Walk pack) to the tree. I then added Birgit’s stunning birds (from the same pack) which I placed right on her branch. Finally, I attached the quote, which is also from her Forest Walk pack.  The green star and word “Believe” are from Birgit’s Essential Elements pack. As you can see, the packs work wonderfully together! And to complete my page, I digitally added some black grass and red poppies from ArtStacks' Anemones and Friends pack. I also included some thread to give my page interest and depth.  That's it!  It was so fun and easy to make.


I hope you get a chance to check out ArtStacks and see what their talented design team has come up with!


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


This month is being hosted by Halle (pronounced Holly) of Halle's Hobbies.

Her theme for July is "Botanicals."  She says "Since it's summertime in Minnesota, that means enjoying the great outdoors as much as possible . . . I'm especially fond of flowers, so I thought the perfect theme would be Botanicals.  The theme is pretty broad . . . from beautiful vintage images to wonky sketches, stamped images, to stickers . . . as long as it relates to plants, it's fair game.  Are you in?  Can't wait to see all the lovely florals."

When I saw Halle’s July theme, I knew I had to join in! I digitally added the amazing red poppies from ArtStacks ‘Anemones and Friends’ pack to go along with Halle’s botanical theme. I think they complement Birgit Koopsen’s birds beautifully.

I also want to thank everyone at AJJ. Your work is truly inspiring, and I always enjoy visiting your blogs.


Now I hope YOU get a chance to create a project for Halle’s Botanical theme. It’s a fun and creative way to showcase your artistic skills while paying tribute to Halle’s theme.

July is almost over, and I can’t wait to see what August will bring.

Thanks for stopping by my blog today. Have a great day and keep creating!
