Hi Guys! Today we continue working on our Pastel Blossoms journals and I'm sharing with you some of my favorite, easy mixed media techniques that you can use to make your journal pages more interesting and colorful. Hope you will enjoy! And if you'd like to catch up on some of the videos in the series, here's the whole playlist for you :) th-cam.com/play/PLKhW8--MgT5-dOSs-B1A2qf9wQ8izlUUm.html
I love your videos - I sometimes play a bunch all together to listen to while I work in my studio or study. Remember that sometimes your audience are not just learning a style or a technique - they are experiencing your creative expression WITH you. And I think that is a really special talent that you have. A soothing voice and presence. I hope you keep growing and adapting. I'll tell you one thing you said to me that absolutely RESONATED...and that was you said sometimes you just want to fussy cut something out in front of the tv. And I get that! I just said that to my Mother - I said, "You know, sometimes you don't want to glue or dye or sketch or sew - you just want to rip up an old book and cut things out of it." LOL...it must call to the part of oneself that wants to focus on task without much thought or decision making. God bless and I hope you are doing well.
If you mist down the page with water, then use a rolling pin over your “embossing folder”, that pops the imprint really well, too. Thank you for your tips with Distressed ink & mist on plastic wrap, Gesso (dry brush), and stencils.
I love the different techniques you've used to add color to your pages. My mind sometimes goes blank when I'm confronted by a plain white page. I've just subscribed so I will see more!
So beautiful as always! I love the page you did with the stencil and embossing so much. Your way to work with colours is so lovely. I tend to gravitate towards all the neutrals and light colours but you inspire me to use more vibrant colours! I most often tackle my blank pages with collages ☺️ thanks for sharing this video!
Thank you so much Cynthia!! I am so happy you found some inspiration in my video :) And collage is such a great idea to deal with blank pages, one of my favourites!
I am so grateful to have come across this video! I love your technique and tips! I agree, the embossing looks beautiful. I love the gold gilding wax you used also. I will need to buy some and try it. I subscribed to your channel and looking forward to more. Your voice is so very calming. Thank you, hugs from Jennifer in Minnesota.
Beautiful pages love the embossing. I just ordered some different colors to experiment with. I also bought a background stamp, I will stamp then spritz with water. I also want to ink spritz and use bubble wrap. Thanks for sharing your ideas. I can't wait to try.
Love what you did to the blank pages using the sprays and plastic packaging. Believe it or not I don't have any distress inks except a couple of tiny ones I haven't used much so now I will. This could be done on tags too just a smaller area. Have you used alcohol inks this way? Thank you so much for sharing your talent.You are a good teacher!! Hugs to you Sue of Illinois USA
funny I was just going to ask you how you color the pages and here is the answer!! Watching/listening to your videos while at work! helps me be productive! Thank you Martyna!
Hello Martyna. I love this digital set. I bought it to make my first journal ever. I have a question about the brown "damask" stamp you use at 13;36 minutes, where could I get that? I love all things damask.
These techniques are truly beautiful, left me crying out for "More". I loved hoe you made each page simply and beautifuly flow together. Would love to see some more techniques on making the pages flow. TYFS, Donna, in California.
This video is exactly what I needed! Beautiful tutorial ❤ I remember from your old flip throughs that fabric dyed pages were so beautiful. Maybe you can show us how to fabric dye a page or avocado etc. I like making flips on a blank page so you can write on the blank page and add ephemera on the flips 😅 I can't think of anything else other than your ideas 😅 Thanks for the inspiration. Take care 😊
Yay, I'm so happy you liked it and found it useful! I will happily make a video on fabric dyeing papers 😊 Oh flips are such a great idea to decorate a blank page - any page really! I love flips! Thank you for sharing and for watching dear! Hugs and smiles ❤
Thank you for doing this video I've got a couple of sprays and I've tried just spraying onto the paper and it's a mess I love your packaging techniques

Hi. Love your videos. What brand is the tube of gold you used around paper edges? Thank you.
Thank you, Sally! 😊 It's a Polish brand called Renesans but any gilding wax/paste will do just fine!
Hi - do you journal/write on these decorated pages? New subbie, enjoying your videos.
Hi Grace, welcome! ❤ Yes, when the paint/ink is dry you can write on the pages :)
Hi do you have a Facebook page
Really enjoyed your tute.
Thank you, dear! 😊 I don't actually have a separate Facebook page for my creations but I do use Instagram a lot.
Why can't you spray straight in the paper? It seems a waste of time to spray on packaging. I don't get it
