Coloring stamps? Yes, please!
Love the artsy effects of coloring stamps with watercolors
I spent some time this weekend with my new little journal/folio I made with the @ardencreativestudio Bookmakers pack. Absolutely loving the direction these pages take me and the base that the Bookmakers gave me as a starting point.
Went back into my stash and stamped up a base of texture before adding some rubons from the @ardencreativestudio Hidden Creek Collection
Simple as that!

Mistakes or Magic?
Art journaling does involve layers and in this case lots of layers. So what started as passing a little bit of translucent color became way too strong for me so I pulled back on it and added more layers over that to arrive at a delightfully textured foundation for my page
Started with Garden Chronicles Decoupage Paper and ended with a cluster of elements from the Garden Chronicles Lasercuts textured up with texture paste and the Flourished Lattice Stencil
It’s all Garden Chronicles from @ardencreativestudio really. The colors. The vintage vibe. The imagery. This collection has it all and it has my heart!

Most mixed media projects dont fail because of what you added. They fail because of whats missing. For me, its almost always a rub-on — specifically these Garden Chronicles ones from Scrapbook.com. Exclusive to them, built for layering, and responsible for making this card look like I knew what I was doing the whole time.
Simple as that!

You can do this!
A quick and easy card with stamps from @ardencreativestudio has got you covered!
I grabbed the border strip stamp from the Seek More Stamp Set from @ardencreativestudio and a palette of 4 oxide stamps to create a ribbon-like design for this card
I repeated ‘congratulations’ from the Everyday Notes Stamp Set, sewed up a border, mounted onto card stock and called it done!
