Here we are and\u00a0it’s February 29th –\u00a0or March 1st any other year – and we’re on to Week 9 of the 2016 Art Journal Adventure.\u00a0 Just over 2 months in and the 9th page or page spread is finished.<\/p>\n

By this point in the winter I’m always fed up and longing for spring, which is the theme of today’s page.\u00a0 This\u00a0time I’m working on a single page as there are less than 52 complete spreads in the Square Kraft Dylusions Journal<\/a>.\u00a0 At some point I’ll probably tip-in a page which will help get me to 52 for 2016.<\/p>\n

This spread incorporates a little lettering,\u00a0a holdover\u00a0from last week.\u00a0 As you’ll see I went back to what works; penciling in a baseline and the words before committing the letters with a PITT Pen<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Aside from my desire for warmer weather and flowers, part of the inspiration for the content of today’s page was drawn from a photo one of the members of the Facebook 2016 AJA Group<\/strong> posted.\u00a0 My page looks nothing like Jane’s, but for the fact that we both used flowers as the focal image.\u00a0 Nonetheless, I was inspired by the art she created.\u00a0 Click here<\/a> to see Jane’s lovely page:<\/p>\n

If you have not joined the Facebook 2016 Art Journal Adventure group I hope that you will.\u00a0 The warmth and supportive environment would make even the most dedicated lurker comfortable enough to chime in!\u00a0 Clicking here<\/a> will take you to the group, which you need to ask to be a member of.\u00a0 Remember, that’s only a formality.\u00a0 Everyone is welcome!<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\"2016-aja-week9-1\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Week 9 began with a piece of 90# Watercolor Paper <\/a>– leftover from something I demoed while filming Wednesday’s video.\u00a0\u00a0The colors, courtesy of FW Acrylic Inks<\/a>,\u00a0were mopped off\u00a0an Accordion Book.\u00a0 (Here’s a HUGE hint<\/strong>: if you would like some of the FW Acrylic Inks – wait until Wednesday to order them.\u00a0 I’m just sayin’.)\u00a0 There was too much on that surface, so I applied the spare piece of watercolor\u00a0to the book.\u00a0 That caused the color to be spread on the paper too.\u00a0 Once it was dry I stamped a couple each of our Doodle Flower #1<\/a>, #2<\/a>, and #3<\/a> images using Black StazOn Ink<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\"2016-aja-week9-2\"<\/a><\/p>\n

These are the three I chose.\u00a0 They’re not quite as lively as I would like, but as you’ll see, Stickles<\/a> will change that!<\/p>\n

\"2016-aja-week9-3\"<\/a><\/p>\n

I knew this week would be a single page, so I used some wide Painter’s Tape to mask off the center and over\u00a0part of\u00a0the other page.\u00a0 That will keep the paint from where it does not belong,<\/p>\n

\"2016-aja-week9-4\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Having used two of the new Dylusions Paint colors in last week’s MidWeek Muse video, and loving the combination, I went right back to them: Calypso Teal <\/a>and Cherry Pie<\/a>.\u00a0 I brought out White Linen <\/a>too because I knew a pastel tint of the blend would give me the look I was after.<\/p>\n

\"2016-aja-week9-5\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Absolutely too dark!<\/p>\n

\"2016-aja-week9-6\"<\/a><\/p>\n

White Linen makes it far more appealing!\u00a0 I applied the color with a baby wipe, going for loose coverage.\u00a0\u00a0 Ah, white space.\u00a0 How I have come to appreciate thee.<\/p>\n

\"2016-aja-week9-7\"<\/a><\/p>\n

I like this color with the flowers, but still think it’s a little dark, so it’s back to White Linen…<\/p>\n

\"2016-aja-week9-8\"<\/a><\/p>\n

This time by itself on a baby wipe and applied all over the page.<\/p>\n

\"2016-aja-week9-9\"<\/a><\/p>\n

That’s more like it.<\/p>\n

\"2016-aja-week9-10\"<\/a><\/p>\n

I also decided that the background needed a little help and applied some turquoise spray through our Punchinella Trio I Stencil<\/a>.\u00a0 Those are 1\/4″ dots from the center section and tend to be my go to thing when I want some texture.\u00a0 I’ll do more to the dots, which you’ll see in a few photos.\u00a0 I used a ruler and pencil to mark the baseline for my lettering.<\/p>\n

\"2016-aja-week9-12\"<\/a><\/p>\n

The white circles are from a foam stamp which will be coming.\u00a0 You\u00a0 heard it here first – Foam Stamps are coming to Joggles!<\/p>\n

\"2016-aja-week9-11\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Look closely and you’ll see the baseline and my penciled in letters.\u00a0 I didn’t trace over them exactly, but they did act as a guide.<\/p>\n

\"2016-aja-week9-13\"<\/a><\/p>\n

I also penciled in the stems and the leaves on the page, then…<\/p>\n

\"2016-aja-week9-13-1\"<\/a><\/p>\n

I painted them with a little Genesis Green FW Pearlescent Ink<\/a>.\u00a0 I also used a PITT Pen to add wobbly lines for the border around 3 sides of the page.\u00a0 At this point the flowers have not been glued in place.\u00a0 Primarily because they need Stickles to make them a bit more interesting.<\/p>\n

\"2016-aja-week9-14\"<\/a><\/p>\n

If you look closely, you’ll see that I outlined some of the turquoise dots made with Punchinella Trio I Stencil and added some Xs to a few, just to keep the background from being too samey-samey.\u00a0 I used a really light touch and a black PITT Pen in the SX (Extra Super Fine) Tip<\/a>.\u00a0 I can make really delicate lines with that pen because the tip is so fine.\u00a0 Some of the time that’s exactly what’s needed.<\/p>\n

\"2016-aja-week9-15\"<\/a><\/p>\n

There are 4 colors of Stickles here: Peacock<\/a>, Grape Crush<\/a>, Neon Flamingo<\/a>, and Twilight<\/a>.\u00a0 I ended up not using Twilight, thinking it was a bit too blue.\u00a0 I used Stickles on the centers of the flowers.\u00a0 Just enough glitter to amp them up a bit without it going overboard.\u00a0 (Is there such a thing as too much Stickles?\u00a0 Methinks not)<\/p>\n

\"2016-aja-week9-16\"<\/a><\/p>\n

\"2016-aja-week9-17\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Done!\u00a0 And there’s Week 9 completed.\u00a0 I look forward to seeing your photos in the Facebook AJA Group<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
