Art Journalling #2

Hi there everyone, as promised from my last blog post,
today I am sharing more of my Art Journalling pages,
having fun here playing with stamp sets, collectables and papers from Kaisercraft.

This month's paper collection from Kaisercraft is "Sail Away" which is a very nautical theme papers, great for all your sea side holiday photos or for
masculine theme projects. The other paper collection is "Provincial" 
this paper collection is very soft and pretty, I love the stamp set and sticker sheet in this collection.

So here are two more Art Journal pages created on some of my holiday photos.

Using the Kaisercraft "Sail Away" paper pad, stamp set, sticker sheet and collectable pieces from the paper collection, NO DIE-CUTS.

Lots of stamping, inking, distressing and paper fun.

Next is another art journal page created with "Provincial" paper collections
again with papers, collectables, stamp set and image from the sticker sheet  from this collection.
NO DIE-CUTS involving in creating this pages.

Thanks so much for looking 
and hope you have a creative week, see you at the end
of the week with other blog post, sharing some Christmas cards
made with Couture Creations Diecuts and products.


Big hugs

Hi there everyone, Just a very quick share today , a layout using only stamps and embossing folder from the latest paper collection from Kaisercraft - "Provincial"

Using the embossing folder is a great way to give die cut flowers - some texture.
