Stamped and Stencilled Art Journal Background: Walking the Dog


The larger Doodle Round Leaf stencil and coordinating stamps made the perfect background for this journal page featuring a magazine clipping of a dog walker.
Trim a piece of large Clarity stencil card to 8.5” x 8,5”. Add Peeled Paint Distress Oxide onto a blending mat, spritz with water and drag the card through the ink. Dry thoroughly and repeat.
Repeat this step with Tea Dye Distress Oxide.
And again with Forest Moss Distress Oxide.
Add the 9” x 9” leaf stencil to the page and blend Bundled Sage Distress Oxide through it with a Clarity stencil brush.
Add stamping in Library Green Archival ink using the largest stamp from the matching stamp set.
Add the centre infill stamp and the small leaf infill stamps to the stencilling in the same ink.
Repeat using the large leaf infill stamps.
Fussy cut an image from a magazine.
Add the image to the page and seal it with matte medium. Dry thoroughly.
Add shading round the image with Faber-Castell Big Brush markers, blended out with a Pergamano pen and nibs.
To finish, add a couple of Leonie’s word stickers.
