simon says stamp monday challenge: let’s art journal

Hi all and welcome to another week on the Simon Says Stamp Monday Challenge. Thank you for playing along with us last week in the  challenge and we hope you will join us again this week too 🙂 

This week our challenge is Let’s Art Journal and I have created a page to add to my mini junk journal. I took a piece of Distress Watercolor Cardstock and used my palettes that I created from my Distress Watercolor Pencil shavings. These make a kind of paint that is super creamy to paint with and highly pigmented. If you’d like to learn more about how I created the palette I have a step by step video that will show you how to create one of your own over on my You Tube Channel. 

Once I had painted my background, I added some stamping from the Mini Media Marks set using Distress Archival Inks. I added some pencil marks and some dots with a white Posca pen. To finish my page, I added a Mini Paper Doll, a stamp from the Postmarked sticker book, stamped a stamp from the Correspondence set and then added a Small Talk Sticker.
