Blind 6 Challenge Art Journal Page - Simplicity

Hi everyone!

Today's blind 6 challenge involved adding a few more of one of the products I chose - the Magical powders!

So I 'blindly' chose tea dye distress oxide, stream Color Wash, emerald green FW acrylic ink, bundled sage distress ink reinker, cadmium yellow deep acrylic paint and bratwurst brown Magical powders!

This didn't seem like it was going to work!!! Until we decided to apply the magical powders using white Dylusions spray! When that magic happened we decided to use all the other colours of Magical powders I owned (I only own 5 LOL).

The effect was just so pretty that all we decided to do was add some black top and bottom borders, a bit of stencilling in black and a quote in black! Just love how this page turned out!!!

Art Journal Page - Blind 6 Challenge - Imagination

Hi everyone!

Today's journal page was done in my Dylusions Creative Journal and prompted by the 'blind 6' challenge. This is where I 'blindly' chose 6 different mediums to use on my page. They were the only products I could use except for gesso, texture paste, matte medium, etc, as well as stencils and stamps - you can also use any product black or white.

So today I blindly chose tissue wrap * lemon acrylic paint * yellow magicals powder * purple/blue spray * mermaid lagoon distress oxide * purple alcohol ink - what a mixture!!!! This was gonna be hard!

As I started putting down the products the page, and the colours, were starting to grow on me and I started having a bit of fun with it. I'm pretty happy with how the page ended up!

Art Journal Page - Live Stream - Don't Accept Advice!

Hi everyone

I've been slack with my blog posts for my live streams. This one was recorded last week on 23 November 2018 but I didn't take any photos for the blog and I haven't even edited the YouTube recording details. My bad! I'm thinking that it was because my camera mount collapsed and I had to set up a temporary camera setup which wasn't the best, but oh well, it is what it is!

You can watch the full live recording (it's back the front because of the position of the camera) on my YouTube channel by CLICKING HERE.

I can't even remember what products I used, other than the embossing powders that Eileen made me use!!!! It didn't turn out too badly, not my best but I'm always learning :)












Thanks so much for watching and stay tuned for more!!!

Art Journal Page 224

Hi everyone!

This page was based on the Tag #10 challenge 'blind 6'. What I had to do with this page was use the same 6 products I blindly chose for the tag and create a page based on the background I created on the tag.

I think this background turned out much better than the tag background. And that's how it should be! We should take what we've learned previously and try to improve on it. I don't usually, but I feel I did with this one.
