Making Background Papers a Feature in Your Art Journal-Journal With Me Full Process Video

I’m using stamped, patterned papers to create a simple yet beautiful journal spread with a gorgeous metallic floral from my Fabulous Florals Summer Bloom stamp set as a focal point.
The Summer Bloom floral used in the video is from my new Fabulous Florals stamp collection available exclusively at ​⁠@joggles. There are six clear stamp sets in the collection: coneflower, rustic daisy, day lily, poppy, bachelor button, and summer bloom. Each set includes a floral, stem, leaf, background, border, and sentiment stamp that can be combined in an endless variety of ways to create unique and beautiful florals for art journals, card making, and other art projects.

I like how the papers are anchored across the center of the journal. Lovely restful colors and balanced, attractive use of the stamps. TFS!

Love it love it love it. The pink and yellow is so beautiful together. And I love this flower. I thought my coneflower was the favorite but now I think it is this one I never spend this much on a stamp but I just love it. So I am going to splurge

beautiful from start to finish! I need to get back to basics, clean & simple. when I overthink thats when I get overwhelmed.

[@eb_mixedmedia]

Yes, sometimes simple can be good. I too overthing sometimes and that can even make it hard to get started!

[@janetingacollins6409]

I’m not seeing the dark papers with the words anymore 🤓 It turned out great!

[@eb_mixedmedia]

I still have them! I just didn't use them here. I thought they were too dark. But I do love how how those papers turned out!

Hi I would love to know where you get your journals - I find many have too many pages and get really thick - would appreciate any suggestions LOVE LOVE your videos

[@eb_mixedmedia]

My journals get very thick as well. The one shown here is pretty flimsy. Not sure I would recommend it. I bought a set of 12 to use for a class. I had my students glue the pages together to make them thicker to withstand wet mediums. That being said, it doesn't get very thick because it doesn't have a lot of pages. Here's the link: www.amazon.com/dp/B0B9RP5DKV?psc=1&ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_product_details. I also like the 5x8 Dylusions journal from Ranger. The paper is really sturdy and mine have gotten super thick and still close with the elastic that is attached to the cover. I have a video where I paint the cover--it's my wanderlust journal--if you want to check that out to see how chunky it can get! I've also heard of people cutting spines to make chunky journals close better but I don't know how to do that. You could search for videos on TH-cam. I'm sure they are out there. Hope this helps.
