NEW Stamp of the Week with Videos

February 12, 2017 - by Camille Robinson

NEW Stamp of the Week with Videos

Happy Sunday and NEW Stamp of the Week—Twinkles & Wings!
With the Stamp-of-the-Week subscription, you get a brand new Unity Stamp
Company stamp set in your mailbox weekly. SOTW designs change weekly. There are
discounts and special perks for SOTW members. Here’s a link to the subscription
page: https://www.unitystampco.com/shop/stamp-of-the-week/
Here’s a peek at the art journal page I put together using Twinkles &
Wings.
This lovely stamp set inspired me to get in my crafty space and play with a set of gouache that I’ve had for a
couple of years now and just haven’t used. Gouache has been referred to as an opaque watercolor and can really give your projects vivid color. After seeing this stamp, I knew I wanted to get in there and give gouache a try along with some modeling paste and a toothbrush splatter technique to make stars.
In the first video, I’m a beginner to gouache but I give you some tips I’ve
picked up on how to make a FUN night sky background for your stamping projects
for art journals, canvas, etc.
Supplies Used for this portion of the art journal page:
140lb Watercolor
Paper
Pencil with Eraser
A Few Tubes of Gouache
Brush
Mini Ice Cube
Tray (not necessary)
Paper Towel 
Heat Tool (not necessary–just let air
dry)
In the second video, I continue to use gouache and show you how to make stars
using toothbrush splatter.
Supplies Used for this portion of the art journal page:
White
Gouache
Water
Old Toothbrush
Water Brush
Black Gouache
Paper Towel 
Heat Tool (not necessary–just let air dry)
In the final video, I continue to add to the night sky scene by showing you
how to create a moon with modeling paste through a stencil, applying distress
ink to the texture of the moon, and then adhering stamped tissue paper to the
scene.
Supplies Used for this portion of the art journal
page:
