Hello there and welcome to the Unity blog. I’m Gaylynn. Add stamping with mixed media elements for a lovely mini art journal page. I included inspirational words, flower stamping and ink blending. The stamps offer a mix of mixed media elements that work perfectly with ink blending. I love the squiggly lines for the frame.
See the full project supply list and short video linked below.
Helpful Tips
- Select a mini art journal page or card panel.
- Stamp the large flower onto smooth white cardstock in blue or teal ink then stamp and die-cut the sentiment panel.
- Stamp the medium squiggly lines four times to make a frame around the flower bud, leaving room for the sentiment.
- Trim or die-cut the framed flower panel using square dies, plus die-cut a heart accent.
- For color, ink blend the flower using detailed blending brushes and ink blend the square panel in kraft and blue dye ink colors.
- Onto the 4×4 art journal page, ink blend around the edges using pink dye ink, then heat set.
- Layer and adhere it all to the art journal page or card front.
Here is another look at the inspirational art journal page.
Sentiment: It’s important to make someone happy, and it’s important to start with yourself.
