Tick Tock - With Bee Arty!

Hi Lovelies!

Today I have a scrapbook page to share with you made using lots of amazing products from Bee Arty!


I'm a huge fan of using white cardstock for the base of my scrapbook pages. I use lots of white cardstock so I'm always looking out for great quality thick white cardstock at a great price. Bee Arty has the most amazing white cardstock 350gsm 10pack for $8. I've ordered some but it didnt arrive in time for this project so I had to use a different brand cardstock that wasnt really the best for this project (as you can see from all the buckling), but it did the job.

I decided to use Colour Mica Powders to create a background for this project. I only have a few colours at the moment - but I have ordered more! I'm using Leather, Bling, and Deep Water Colour Mica Powders to coordinate with the Time Flies Collection papers I will use on the page later. There are so many ways to use Mica Powders. For this project I spritz my page with water, then use a fan brush to sprinkle each of the 3 colours across my page. Then I dry the project off and add splatters of each of the colour.
 

Next I wanted to add some texture with stencils. I'm using the Time Flies Hanging Time A5 stencil with some Bling Colour Paste and I tint some heavy gloss gel with Leather Colour Mica Powder to use through the stencil as well.  
 
Lastly I add some stamping using the Life is tough stamp set which has some grungy patterns. Then I use a black marker to doodle around the edge of my page.
 
 
I colour some muslin to use on the page also using the Leather Colour Mica Powder mixed with water.
  
 
I made some diecuts using the Time Flies Tic Toc metal die and i cut off the chain part as I only want to use the clock and cogs on this project. 
 

Here is my finished page.

 
I mat my photo on some papers from the Time Flies collection pack. I add some of the words from the Curious word sheet.  

 
Under 2 of the photo corners I add the Tic Toc die cuts, coloured muslin, and paper flowers.
 
 
Old flair from my stash are a fun addition to the page.

Discover Create - With Bee Arty!

Hi Lovelies!

Today I have an art journal page to share with you made using lots of amazing products from Bee Arty.
 
 
I'm creating in a 8x10 DWM media journal on one of the cotton rag watercolour pages.

For my background I have started by applying Berry Colour Artist ink using a painting with plastic technique. Then I have added splatters of Berry, Marine and Citrus Colour Artist inks
 

I mix some Passion Colour Shimmer Dust with a white modelling/texture paste in a paint palatte. Using texture paste results in a chalky mat finish to the stencilled image. You could use a heavy gloss gel instead (or heavy mat gel) to give a more glossy translucent effect similar to that of Colour Paste.
  

Apply this paste through the Circulate stencil in places.
 
  
 Add stamping to the page using the Life Is Tough Stamp Set.
  
 
Here is my finished page.

 
I found the picture on Pinterest and printed it out on photo paper. I've matted some old book paper and white muslin under 2 corners of the photo and added some Tim Holtz small talk word stickers. Lastly I've added doodling around the edge of the page using a Fude ball pen.

I'm playing along with the July moodboard challenge. We would love for you to join in with this challenge and be in the running to win a Scrapping Clearly store voucher. You have until July 31 and you need to upload your challenge here.


This page is created in my Black Square Dylusions Journal. I have had this journal for a few years but hesitant to use it because the black is quite overwhelming. I'm so glad i took the plunge as I love it now :)

I also gathered a heap of supplies that fit in with the moodboard.
 
  
I started by creating a watercolour background using Prima Watercolor Confections - Classics (white and grey).
 

  
Next I added some texture using a variety of stencils and using Platinum modelling paste, Faber Castell Whipped Spackle, and Bo Bunny Silver glitter paste. Then I doodled around the edge of the page using a white Uniball Signo broad pigment ink pen.
 
  
Here is my finished page. I found this image on Pinterest and printed it out on photo paper.
 
  
I added gauze, diecuts and Tim Holtz chit chat word stickers.
 

 I love this image - isn't she adorable!
