 Πυθυμόμαι μου, είναι Βυγκή και σήμερα να σας πω ένα εξωγένι. Θα εργήσω σε ένα δυο ψάμμα μου και θα χρησιμοποιήσω παραδείγματα από αυτή η εξωγένειά. Αυτό είναι για παρδείγματα. Έχει εξωγένει στις αμερικές εξωγένειες και εξωγένει μες το αμερικό, όπως και μερικές αδυνατές και στις κρύτερες. Τώρα,ματι αρέσει σε αυτές οι εξωγένειες είναι ότι να συγκρόουν με ένα στένσυ που μπορείς να χρησιμοποιήσεις για το δυνατό ή για το πρόσφαρο. Θα βρεις αυτό αίσθημα και θα σας δείξω τα μπροστά στρατιά και το καλύτερο πράγμα για τα μπροστά στρατιά με τα στρατιά με τα στρατιά είναι ότι τα βρήκαν τόσο πραγματικά από όπου η κόμμα αυτούς δεν βλέπουν κάθε πρόσφαρο. Λοιπόν, θα ανοίξω ένα νέο παίδιο εδώ και σήμερα θα πάρω για ένα τελικό δίσκολο συγκλή από το στιγμό που χρησιμοποιήσω. Θα βρεις το αμέσιο ήμέστος και θα θέλω να δηλαδήσω μια σπλάσσα στο τέτοιο στρατιά μου. Λοιπόν, για αυτό θα χρησιμοποιήσω αυτά τα δυνατήρες. Αυτή είναι νέο νέο στρατιά και είναι σύστηση με κάτω. Και θα ανοίξω τα πράγματα στο νέο και θα πιστεύω πού θέλω να είναι η σπλάσσα. Θα χρησιμοποιώ τον πένι μου για να χρησιμοποιήσω την σπλάσσα εδέον στο νέοςνό της σπλάσσας και η μιάστη λέξε για να χρησμοποιήσω το πένι μπορώ να πω πάνω και να βοηθήσω κάποιες λιμές και να δοκιμάζω ένα λίγο πιο πολύ πιο πιο πιο πιο πιο αφού είμαι αγόησης με την λιμό μου. Τώρα, φυσικά μπορείς να πω πάνω και να δοκιμάζω μετά από τα βασικά σου, και then χρησιμοποιώ τα σπλάσια σας να χρήσω στο σπλάσιο. αλλά όχι γιατί ήθελα να παίρνω με το σπλάσιο μου, όμως με τα παιδότητα μου, εγώ είχα ξεχέσει να φτιάξω αυτό το σπλάσσα στην σπλάσσα, για να μπορούσα να δουλειάω τα πλήματα μου και τα σπίτια για να βλέπω σπίτια από τη μου βάση. Ποίτασης μπορείς να δεις ότι έχω διονμάσει καλά εδώ. Και ήδη γιατί δουλειάω fenderμερικά δυο διαφορετικές σπίτια θα πάω να αφήσω πως η ληρία είναι σαν δηλαμβάνη. Και έχω να χρησιμοποιώ ένα σπίτι για να строήσω δράφλεσης, που είναι έφτρεξα του σπλάστοι. Εντάξει, μπορώ να χρησιμοποιήσω my pencil and draw the droplets directly without any stencil but I just wanted to give you an idea on how you can use stencils other than applying ink through them or paint through them. And now I'm going to use my scissors to cut out my stencil and here's what I end up having. You can use both the negative and the positive from this stencil. And finally I'm going to use my craft knife to go around the droplets. I don't need to add any pressure at all. This is very thin and all I need to cut out is the top layer and that blue that you see is actually the backing of the masking tape. And now my stencil is ready to go. I hope you can see how beautiful it looks. I'm going to peel it off and place it on top of my pages making sure that I align them correctly. Now since this is a masking paper it is sticky but not too much so it is really forgiving and you can peel it off and place it again until you are happy with the placement. I also used my bone folder to go over the masking paper just to make sure that everything is nicely stacked down and now I'm going to have some fun. I'm bringing in my Distress Oxide ink and you can see the three colors that I used on the screen right now. And actually this is my favorite combination for creating underwater scenes or the colors that I always use when I want to create a water effect. And it's actually nice to stretch yourself a little bit and sometimes go outside your comfort zone. This is exactly what I'm doing today. So although I usually have a background that is full of color all over the place I decided today to leave white space. So I want to create a focal image at the center of my page and have white all around it and that's exactly what I am going for. Now of course I need to make sure that as I am applying my ink with the blending tool I don't go over the stencil at the top and at the bottom. So if you are going for this look maybe you want to cover up that top and the bottom just in case you make a mistake. Distress Oxide ink blends beautifully together and I really love the effect that they give when you splash water on top of them. So this is what I am going to do. I'm going to make sure that I cover up all the splash through that stencil that I created. And also you can see that in some areas it lifts up the stencil but when I go over it with my blending tool I make sure that it's nicely pressed down so I don't make a mess. Once I was happy with the blending and how that looked I used my heat gun to speed up the drying process. And now I'm going to spray some water and also add some droplets bigger ones. And then with a damp cloth I'm going to blot all that water and hopefully you can see the splashes that I created. I'm going to repeat the same process just to have even more of those droplets there. And now for my favorite part where I remove the stencil and see what's underneath. And I was really happy with the result. I think it looks awesome. It's just amazing. And I did have some smudges here and there. But just because this is ink that reacts with water you can always wipe them out with a baby wipe. And that's just exactly what I'm doing here. Just because the baby wipe is wet it actually lifts the ink so it lifts the area quite clean. It's not going to look perfect but definitely cleaner than it was in the beginning. And this is where I am doing all the stamping. I actually picked up every image from the stamp set and stamped it with a Toxido black ink on white cardstock. And since I am going for a totally different look of an art journal that I usually do, I decided to leave my big brush markers aside and instead of using them I am going to use my alcohol markers to color all the images. But I also debated into using my prismacolor pencils for coloring all these little fish. But finally my Nuvo alcohol markers won't just because they are new to me and I wanted to play around and see all the different combinations that I could make. I used matching dyes and ran all the images through my die cutting machine. And I love that they cut out even the inside, the white space in between the tail and the mermaid body. And I hope you can see that it doesn't leave a border around the image. It cuts out exactly where those black lines are. And it's great for the look I am going for where I don't want my images to look like stickers. And here I am coloring all my images with my Nuvo alcohol markers. And when I am coloring with alcohol markers it takes quite a while, it's not as easy and quick as my big brush markers that I normally do for my art journals. But I feel like coloring today, I find it very relaxing. I put on some music and play with my markers. And as I am doing that I can answer the question on how I found inspiration for this page, which is usually a question that I get all the time with my art journals. So the inspiration for this art journal came directly from the stamp set. I had the stamp set for quite a few weeks now and I wanted to create a card using these images. But then when I grabbed them today I thought that it was too beautiful to leave it only on a card and I just wanted to create an art journal. So I thought that this mermaid along with all the fish needed an underwater scene. And that's where the pretty much the whole idea came from. And you really can't have a proper mermaid without some shine. So I used my glitter gel pens to add some shine on her tail as well as on different parts of her body. And I hope you can see the shine that I got here. Of course to do that you can use your Wink of Stella glitter pen or your Nuvo shimmer pen or any other brush glitter pen that you have that doesn't have color and you can go all over her to add some shine. But really I find that these gel pens do a fantastic job and they add so much shine on top of her. I hope you can see the shine there. So now all my focal points are ready to go and of course they have a black line since I stamped them around the design. So just for consistency I am using a thin black marker and I am going around the splash as well. So I do have black lines around each and every element of my page. I think details like that bring everything together. I also used my white gel pen to add some highlights in different parts of my splash that really makes it look more round and shiny. And it's finally time to stick everything down and bring everything together. So I decided to stick all the images down with my Nuvo Deluxe adhesive and that's just because my background, this big splash is made out of distressed oxide ink and you don't want to add matte medium on top which is an adhesive that I would normally use on my art journal. So I am staying away from that. After all I am not planning to use my big brush markers to do any shading at all so all I have to do is to stick everything down with white glue. I am also using some alphabet stickers that I had for ages in my stash to write down the word summer and as I am sticking them down I am making sure that some of my die-cuts are on top and some others are at the bottom just like I did with the mermaid here. Just to add a little bit of dimension. Now I am not allowed to add too much dimension on my art journal otherwise it's going to be too bulky but sometimes I cannot stay away from it so I go for it and embrace the bulkiness of the whole thing at the end. So I am just going to put on some music and let you see how I sampled the whole thing and cut you back once everything is done. Now everything is done. My layout looks amazing. I love how bright and colourful it looks. I grabbed my white gel pen to add some highlights on some of the cutouts that I have stuck down and I am also using it to do some doodling for example on the flowers of her tail as well as add some white details on some of the fish I also grabbed the black gel pen, the glitter gel pen from my set and went over the eyes of all the fish and that doesn't look as much through camera but in real life it makes the eyes more vibrant and brings the fish to life. Now I am also going to stamp the date, the very bottom of my layout and the ink cube that I used to stamp that is actually archival ink and that's the colour of paradise deal that matches perfectly the colours of my layout. As a final step I am going to add glossy accents over my droplets which is going to dry totally clear and it's going to give a beautiful shine. And that was the art journal for today. I hope I inspire you to go outside your comfort zone and go for something totally new for you just like I did today. Don't forget that you can find a full list of all the supplies that I used today down below in the description area as well as on my blog. Here are some close up photos of the layout that I made today. And if you need more inspiration here are two more videos that I created a while back.
