Stamperia Around the World Art Journal Tutorial

     Hello FotoBella Fans! Drea here with the Design Team, and I have a fun mixed media page to share with you using Stamperia's Around the World Collection from FotoBella. I just LOVE the vintage travel papers, including both sides, so you might want to order another, because I was definitely having a hard time deciding which side to use!



                                   Supplies:                                                                  Tools:

            Stamperia Around the World 12 X 12 Paper Pad                     Stipple Brush
            Stamperia Around the World Bicycle Stencil                           Scissors
            Stamperia Geography Stamp
            Prima Marketing Heavy Black Gesso
            Tim Holtz Distress Collage Medium Vintage
            Brushed Pewter Distress Spray Stain
            Antiqued Bronze Distress Spray Stain
            Ranger Archival Jet Black Ink
            Distress Crayons Set #3
            Distress Crayons Set #5
            Glue or Glue Stick


Directions:

1. Cut and glue these four postcards from one sheet of the Around the World Paper Pad.



2. Use scissors to fussy-cut these three travel pics from another sheet.



3. Layer and glue your fussy-cut pieces as shown.



4. Ink Geography Stamp with permanent black ink, and stamp on the top right corner. Then ink just         part of your stamp, and stamp on the left. 



5. Apply a coat of Tim Holtz Distress Collage Medium Vintage over entire page with a large brush or     foam brush. 


6. Color stamping edges and background with Distress Crayons, using Vintage Photo from Set #3,           and Cracked Pistachio, Tumbled Glass, and Frayed Burlap from Set #5.



7. Line bottom of stencil with the bottom of your page, and apply black gesso to the quote, wheel,           and tires treads. Unfortunately I didn't get a photo with the tire treads because I added it later. 




8. Once gesso dries, use stencil again over the gesso to apply Brushed Pewter Distress Spray Stain         with a stipple brush, using a napkin or paper towel to immediately wipe some of it off. 




9. Finally apply Antiqued Bronze Distress Spray Stain over stencil work and page. I also sprayed some along the right with some water, and made some drips along the left.



    Here's a close-up of the quote. 



And a close-up of the stamp.



          Thanks for looking, and visit FotoBella to get these supplies and more!
