Art Journal Video: Distress Ink Background Tutorial

P1050083

Hi everyone! Today I’m sharing a new video featuring a quick and easy way to make backgrounds for your art journaling pages. This technique is easily applied to other art projects including card making, canvas creations, ATCs and tags. If you enjoy the video I’d love it if you’d leave me a comment and share it with a friend!

Magazine Masks

This is actually a really easy page to do. I found a magazine ad featuring a model that looked relatively simple to cut out. Once I’d prepped the background I used the cut out as a mask and edged it in acrylic paints. By the time I got to the 4th image, the mask was somewhat hard to work with, but once it dries it can be used again. I really like this idea because, depending on your mood, your silhouette can change often as opposed to buying a stencil and using the same silhouette over and over again. Give it a try and let me know how it works for you.
