art journal balance

Hi! I hope you all have a great new month! Today I am sharing my latest art journal layout using an amazing set by stampendous, featuring an elephant. The set is designed by the amazing Nathalie Kalbach.

So here is my bright and happy journal!

Ever since I was little I loved elephants… and the moment I saw the set I just had to use it on one of my art journals.

I combined the elephant set with my dylusions paints for a super bright outcome!

In my project today I used mixed media techniques combining paints, with chipboard letters, enamel dots, paper piecing and stenciling.  I had so much fun creating this layout and goes straight up, on my list of top favorites I have ever done.

    I think the white pen really does make everything pop, and like the dimension you achieved with the string and enamels. Thanks for your ever-inspiring tutorials, Vicky!
