Life is like Drawing...

Heya,

Sharing another Art Journal page...
This is one of those pages, where I didnt give any thought....I just created... :)
Its good to sometimes just make something without any plans or any meaning...JUST CREATE!

Coloured the background with different shades of blue watercolors and then stamped with a french script stamp all over. Then to push things in the background...I smooshed some white pigment ink with a makeup sponge...

Wrote the sentiment with a few different fonts...

She Art

Hello crafters,

I made quite some Journal pages this weekend...
Sharing the one I liked the most first...
While browsing the net for good quotes...I came across this quote

I just loved the meaning of this quote......Be happy with who we are...We should stop judging ourselves and try to match the standards set my someone else...Learn to accept ourselves as we are...

So onto the journal page...

I won some beautiful digis from Fitzdown some time back...so I printed out this one and coloured it with colour pencils...and then fuzzy-cut it and kept it aside...

I created the background using distress inks ...using them like watercolours...
Stamped the honeycomb around the border with a Gray marker...

Lastly added the quote with Pigma Micron pens and added a shadow to the words with a gray Gelato...

New supplies...new Journal page

Hey everyone,

I like trying my new supplies on art journal pages...
I made 2 pages recently...

On the first page, I tried out a new woodgrain stamp with different inks...
The upper border is from a border punch...
And on the sides...some doodling using my new Micron brush tip pen and Uniball white signo pen...
The page resembled a door to me...so I chose this quote...and tried some hand lettering...

And then tried my hand on some new additions to my distress ink collection...

I bought my first Distress stain...Dusty Concord...really easy application on larger surfaces...

I wrote some lines from a song with Uniball White signo pen...

The lyrics are from a Hindi songs...

Art Journaling is a great place to try new supplies and to practice your lettering skills...

Cubicle Art

Hello everyone,

The other day I had to wait late in office and I was done with my work...
So I went crazy doodling on the white board on my desk :D ....

The blank white board had been staring at me for quite some time now...
I had this urge to fill the entire board with my marker...

I wrote the word "Aspire" in 3-D font...and then started doodling around it...drawing flowers...henna designs...zentangle patterns...doodles...everything...

It was such a stress-buster...I felt peaceful after I completed the board...

Here is a better look at the doodled board...

I love looking at it while doing my work...it makes me happy... :)

Live Love Laugh

Hello everyone,

I bought some gelatos recently and was eager to try them out...
And what better way to try out a new product than a journal page...

I took a pink gelato and starting drawing hearts...
Initially I drew a big heart in the middle...but I didnt like it so covered it up with a pattern paper :P
After drawing with gelato...I used blur watercolour to colour the white space....

Finally wrote the words with my Pigma Micron and Uniball Signo white gel pen.
I love these 2 pens...they are so great for lettering and doodling...

Now I know...the font for Laugh didnot turn out so great...but hey that is what an art journal is for ;)
