Art Studio: Hello sunshine

July 24, 2016 by nicolemartel 4 Comments

Hello sunshine! I have a fun layout to share with you today. I decided to play with my Shimmerz Paints and doodling. I decided to use mainly blues and greens with touch of gold for this layout. Colors that complimented the photo so well. I used lots of foam squares to pop up my die cuts from the page. And I love the vellum tape included in the August Clique Kit from Pretty Little Studio. It compliments this kit nicely!

Here are a few close-ups:

I used a water brush to add the shimmery paints to my background. I didn’t worry too much about making sure the scribbled background looked neat. I just went to town. Once the paint was dry, I hand-doodled the heart. I really should have used a pencil first… luckily, it turned out ok, otherwise I would have wasted two perfect papers! Yea, I’m crazy like that. 🙂

I did use a pencil to trace the journaling lines first before using a pen… Then after I traced the lines with a pen, I erased the pencil marks.
