Mini Art journal series-4

Hello friends,

It's been long since we shared an art journal page. 

"If it scares you, it might be a good thing to try." We were inspired by this quote on Pinterest. Though we admire when others do stencil monoprint technique, we were scared to try it ourselves. As we felt it may not come out well. But, we thought finally, that it was time to get rid of fear and inhibitions that stop you from trying new things. 

So we tried our hands at stencil monoprint technique, we loved the outcome. But we kept the background lying for some time. Finally, the background was put to good use.

We decided to use the Stencil monoprint background for art journaling. We did some ink blending using similar colors. We did ink smooshing for the monsters. The quote was written on black paper using white gel pen.

Ta da! Our art journal is ready! We loved the outcome. 

Supplies used:

Mudra Crazy monsters stamp set

Mudra Lattice Fusion stencil

Mudra Mai Fuschia Pink
