Mixed Media Journal Cover

Hello Crafty souls!

I am back with a mid week inspiration showcasing the Journal Books.

These are available in 2 variants - 5x6" & 8x8" with 10 flaps inside. Priced at ₹320 & ₹480 these are truly value for money. 

The thick chipboard pages make it desirable for use with all sorts of papercrafts - create a scrap book layout , layer it with pattern papers & can be use as a mini album or a baby book. 

I played around with my supplies to make a mixed media journal cover. These books are spiral bound & open flat, making it easy to work on every single page.

I started by covering with a layer of Black Gesso (the page did not warp or soak at all!)

Used Modelling paste with to create patterns with stencils for textures. I also used the scrap chipboards from the Chippis packaging & trim them to desirable sizes on the layout. All the elements were glued with Gel Medium & covered with Black Gesso. Once dry I used metallique wax pastes.

Some more close ups - 

Thanks for stopping by & happy crafting!

Love,

Tanvi.
