I really love that I can add more and more pages in there and they can be worked out of the journal - it makes my job easier!
For my page I used watercolor paper which I cut to Denim's size. I incorporated the two things I enjoy most having on my journal pages: butterflies and circles.
The circles are the leftovers from a chipboard board I had in my stash and I used my favorite shades of Art Alchemy Acrylic Paints to color them.
In order to create a mixed media background I used Heavy White Gesso with stamps to create texture (you will see this technique in my video below) and Modeling Paste with the Honeycomb Stencil. I also used some clear stamps with black Archival Ink.
The butterfly is handmade and I love this tiny Star Brad I used to decorate it, it's so cute!
For my quote I used a die cut element from the 7Dots Studio Verano Azul collection, as well a sticker with a big star to embellish my page with some black thread.
Last thing to do was to glue three Melange Art Pebbles to add more interest to my page. Luckily I found in the jar the perfect size of pebble to fit the chipboard circles. I love how they look in there!
In the video I made especially for you, you can watch how I put together this journal page.

I hope you got some inspiration from toady's project and create your own page in your Denim Journal!
Today I'm hosting the Finnabair blog with a page in my Denim Journal.
I loved this photo the moment I found it on Pinterest and of course I wanted to make a page with it in my new Denim Journal :)
I used only a few media like the Light Paste,(I adore the beautiful texture it creates), Black Gesso and Mica Powders.
In order to start building my page and create the main cluster I used a chipboard leftover.
I always keep these goodies, for me they are the best pieces to give more interest to my pages.
I applied some Light Paste here and there on the chipboard too, to help the beautiful colors of the Mica Powders stick on there.
To decorate my page I used some cute brads (stars and screws) to secure the ends of the wire and 7Dots Studio stickers. I also used my stapler on the photo, stickers and wire.
To give more interest to the background I used some stamps here and there and made splashes with the Black Heavy Gesso.
I share all the details and the whole process in my video, I hope you will enjoy it :)

Today I'm hosting the Finnabair blog with a small project,
my third tiny canvas, with a video tutorial.
They say that 13 is an unlucky number. But what if we could define our own luck, stop being superstitious (I never was or will be, that's for sure) and decide to take chances even from things we never believed we could and even more at the end number 13would be a lucky number?
Well, today's project is not about number 13, it's about being optimistic, take risks and create our own luck!
I was really in a pleasant mood when I was creating this project and I think this mood shows up in the final result. I wanted to use bright colors that make me happy and what would fit better than the beautiful combinations of blue, pink, yellow and green of the Alchemy Acrylic Paints?
I painted everything with all these beautiful colors, even the metallic embellishments like this cute Mechanical Butterfly and the frond part of an old hand-watch I had in my stash.
Before I glue down the watch I filled it with different Art Ingredients like the Art Stones and Mini Art Stones (I so love these stuff!) and Bronze Micro Beads. Then I used 3D Gloss Gel to glue it on the canvas and make sure it won't go anywhere!
I used my Silicon Brush to apply different texture pastes and create an interesting textured background...
To make it even more cute I used Jump Rings to hang some trinkets like this cute tassel, Roman Numbers (which actually is number 10 and number 3:), a gear and the title I made from a 7Dots Studio sticker.
Here is my video with all the process. I hope you will enjoy it and get some ideas on how to create your own lucky piece of art.

To create this art journal page I got inspired by a layout I created last year. It is one of my favorite works of mine. Here is my blog post for more details.
