Washi Tape: The Ultimate Creative Journal Upgrade
Просмотров 121Месяц назад
In this video, I fill an art journal page using planner tabs and Washi tape. I always get these with every new planner and never end up using them (is it only me lol) so I decided to do something different with them as opposed to just throwing them away. Alternating between the Washi tape and planner tabs was a great choice both visually and functionally as the tape will help keep the tabs on l...
I Transformed My Art Journal into a Water Lily Masterpiece
Просмотров 165Месяц назад
In this video I use acrylic paints to create an abstract scene of a pond with water lilies. I used a black permanent marker to add some cast shadows and broken outlines but it didn't work in the lilies the way I wanted. So I added a light gray to give a little more depth to the flowers. The flies gave the pages a touch of movement and whimsy. Overall I love how the design came together with a f...
Creative Journal Idea Using a Balloon and Acrylic Paints
Просмотров 1462 месяца назад
In this video I use a balloon and acrylic paint to create the beginnings of a unique background for an art journal spread. After rolling the balloon over the paint, it reminded me of flowers on a vine. So I grabbed a brush and more paint and added flowers and leaves to my hearts content! The pages really blossomed to life once I was finished and it is now one of my favorites in this book so far...

      Thank you for asking! In this specific art journal flip through I actually handmade this sketchbook. I used scrapbook and watercolor paper for the signatures and bound them with tied twine that you can see in some of the spreads (like the mistletoe one). The cover is from an old planner that I cut the pages out of. I hope this helps! Thanks again for watching and let me know if you have any other questions 😊

    beautiful..just wondering how do you keep your pages from getting stuck if you are using acrylics?

    • @thecreativearrow
      @thecreativearrow Месяц назад

      Thank you for asking! I have found that if I let the acrylics dry completely between layers or closing my art journal, it will usually avoid the sticking. I also have better luck with matte acrylics as opposed to the glossy kind (those tend to want to stick more) and putting a scrap paper behind the pages I’m working on so paint doesn’t get on the other pages. You can also add a little water to the paint in your palette to make it smoother, thinner, and almost like a watercolor for larger areas/backgrounds which is what I did in this one. Some sticking is unavoidable, but these tricks usually help me. Hope this helps! If you need anything else let me know :)

(You also shared that you used stickers in this video) I see them using the tweezers and pulling them off, but I simply do not know what those are and where to buy them . if I knew what to call them I would love to have them for my journaling.
