This month our Challenge is

Unique Art Expressions August Challenge: Add Birds

This month we are Sponsored by:

Always Grateful x2

They have a fantastic Etsy Shop, full of many beautiful kits!

I really had fun working with their products,
and was inspired to create a two page art journal spread.

Here's my project:

Isn't that a fun spread?

I began by creating a smooshed background, using a variety of Distress Inks.

I then fussy cut all the image from the Sponsor sheet, 

and adhered them in place on my pages.

Here's a closer look:

Once everything was glued in place,
I added a few doodle lines with my black micron pen.

I just love the sentiment on this page! :o)

Finally, to finish things off with a bit of sparkle,

I added several pretty sequins.

I love turning the page in my art journal add seeing this cheerful spread! :o)

 

Materials Used:

Sponsor Kit - Loving the Lord;

Small Coil Art Journal;
Distress Inks: Victorian Velvet, Mowed Lawn, Broken China;
