Take one of my journals...

Tims Idea ology Letter Press, some multi medium and a handful of Posca paint markers. Mix them all together and what do you get?



This little beauty that's what…


Start by adding the letters in a random fashion to the journal cover using the Multi Medium to stick them down. I placed a heavy book on the top and left them to dry for about 30 minutes.


Now they good even like this, but you know me… I neeeeeeed to add colour.



So out came my paint markers and I began colouring in.


I used the orange and colour one letter on each line.



Then swapped to a green and continued.




Then blue..




Until I had covered all of the letters. I then doodled the letters and their bases.



How frikkin cool is that. My journal is now truly a work of art and I get questions wherever I go with it. Now before you start Letter Press are not the cheapest product and it took 4 packs, but omg it is a fabulous result and I love it.

If four packets sounds too much, how about decorating one of my smaller journals? I made this one yesterday for the lovely Ted, aka Mr Stampers Anonymous, whilst demoing at Stampaway in Cincinnati. This was made exactly the same way and took me an hour to complete. Plus it only takes just less than 2 packs of letters.








Have you spotted the words I put in there??

Ted loved it and I feel the need to make another for myself lol.

I'll blog all about the show and the fabulous people I met there, tomorrow.

Enjoy xx
