Christmas time at home - Art Journalling with Adriana Bolzon

Hi everyone,  Adriana here today with my another art journal creative fun page.

It has been a really tough year for some of us, and I think this Christmas will be so important for many and for me it will be all about my family and spending Christmas time at home.

I created an art journal page - something bright and flowery (as I always like flowers!! )

Using the Layered Poinsettia stamp set from THE GIFT OF GIVING  to create the large beautiful blooms and using the Couture Creations Alcohol inks to colour in my art journal. I show you how I created my page in my you tube video , which is at the end of this blog post.

stay safe and take care

Cheers

Merry Christmas Kookaburra - Art journal page

Hi everyone, Adriana here today and welcome to the Couture Creations Blog. I have been playing in my art journal again, it is very relaxing and so much fun creating and playing in my journal.

Since Christmas is only a few weeks away, I have created a Merry Christmas page with a touch of Australiana.  This could easily be created for a card instead of journal page.

Using the Couture Creations - Metallic Alloy Alcohol inks for the background, with some stamping elements from 

The GIFT OF GIVING & 

SWEEPING PLAINS collection.

I have a full tutorial video over on YOU TUBE

the link is end of this blog post.

I created the background on yupo paper 5x7

Using Cinnamon Metallic Alloy Alcohol Ink

and also Champagne Metallic Alcohol Ink

The Metallic Alcohol Inks give such a beautiful shimmery effect on the Yupo paper. I really love these collection of Alcohol Inks.

My tutorial video shows you how to create this page from start to finish.

I try to keep my video under 10 mins so that you get feel of how I created my project. Some sections are fast forwarded so that you don't get bored, BUT you can pause the Video at anytime by pausing or stopping the button on the bottom of the screen.

Once the alcohol inks are dry on the Yupo paper, I added some stamping elements

and also created my Kookaburra with the

SWEEPING PLAINS - Kookaburra Mini stamp and die set.

Also adding some poinsettias cut from the 12 x 12 paper

Metallic Alloys Alcohol inks with Adriana

Hi everyone, Adriana here today and I am sharing another quick video using some of the fabulous new Couture Creations Metallic Alloy Alcohol Inks. These Metallic Alloy Alcohol Inks create fabulous backgrounds.  I then added some 3D decoupage sheets on the front of the cards. These are the Christmas collections of 3D push outs decoupage sheets which are also available now. These are really simple and easy to create and in a few moments you will have some great Christmas cards ready for this Christmas.

Here is my set of 3 Christmas cards.

The backgrounds are created on Yupo paper with the new

Metallic Alloy Alcohol Inks.

I have created a video to show how I created these backgrounds

and it is so simple and easy to do. Check it all out at the end of this blog post.

After adding the 3D Decoupage images I place a word sentiment from the

"THE GIFT OF GIVING" sentiment ephemera pack on each of the cards.

Adding some gemstones in the centre of each flower.

These are the three Metallic Alloy Alcohol inks that I used to create the backgrounds for the cards.
