Whimsical Swimmers

Big welcome to Barbara, my latest follower.♥

Welcome back to my blog for another design team project for
For my journal today I have used another lovely and fun stamp by Art by Marlene stamp set, Whimsical Swimmers, and available at Ink Art Designs
Distressed inks, brusho's and paints were used along with dotty stencil and textured crackle paste. After cutting out some dies I used the negative to stamp through onto the background, others were adhered to the journal page. The fish were painted with water paints and highlighted with chalk.

Hi Annie. I love how you've used both the die and the negative to build up the background. The puffer fish is one of my favourites. This is a fabulous art journal page.
