\nHi folks !
\nGood Morning \ud83d\ude42 <\/p>\n

Preeti Datta (Dutt Preety)<\/a> here.
\nToday, I’ve created an Art Journal Spread. <\/b><\/p>\n

\nI was inspired by nature & have used mixed media techniques on the pages. <\/div>\n
\nI have used mixed media products by CrafTangles as well as other products from Hndmd<\/a>.<\/div>\n

Process:<\/span><\/b><\/p>\n

\n<\/div>\n
\n1. Applied White Gesso to the pages to prepare them for mixed media work<\/div>\n
\n2. Applied CrafTangles Chalky Paint- Buttercream to the background <\/div>\n
\n3. Mixed CrafTangles Texture Pastes Cement and Asphalt (to create the desired consistency & colour) and then applied them through a stencil onto the background<\/div>\n
\n4. To add more interest to the background, sponged on CrafTangles Chalky Paints-Botanical Teal and Cool Jade through a couple of stencils onto the background (use very little paint to get a good sponged image)<\/div>\n
\n5. Stamped onto the background using black archival ink and a text stamp<\/div>\n
\n6. To add more colour to the background, sprayed the pages with water and then added CrafTangles Liquid Watercolours- Lemon Tart, Evergreen & Poolside.<\/div>\n
\n7. Die cut a few beetles using CrafTangles Charcoal Black Cardstock & to add shine to them, applied CrafTangles Art Wax- Turquoise <\/div>\n
\n8. Adhered Tim Holtz metallic stickers and the die cut beetles to the pages using soft acrylic gel & created ink splatter using watered down gesso and chalky paints. <\/div>\n
\n9. In the end, distressed the edges of the pages using distress inks and added crystals to the beetles. <\/div>\n
\n<\/div>\n
