Art Journal Spread by Preeti D.

Hi friends :)

Hope you are doing well.

Preeti Datta (Dutt Preety) here from the VLVS! Design Team.  

For today's post, I've created an Art Journal Spread titled Wanderlust.  

I've used some gorgeous VLVS! Rubber Stamps here. 

First, I applied heavy white gesso to the pages, to prepare them for mixed media work.

Then, stamped the background using VLVS! Stamps and Versamark sticky ink. Next, heat embossed all the stamped images with metallic embossing powder. 

 Added color to the background using Sprays & Starburst squirts. Sprayed with water to create movement.

Did additional stamping using archival ink & VLVS! Rubber Stamps.

 Next, stamped the sentiment and focal image using VLVS! rubber stamps onto white cardstock using versamark watermark ink & heat embossed them in black. Then fussy cut the images & distressed their edges. 

 Adhered a couple of die cuts behind the sentiment and focal element. 

 In the end, distressed the edges of the pages using distress inks and created white & black splatter using watered down gesso.
