Halloween Art Journal



Hello, my dear blog friends, welcome back to the new challenge. This week at Simon Says Stamp Monday Challenge our theme is "LET'S ART JOURNAL". I was inspired to create a mixed media tag using Tim Holtz Cling Rubber Stamps MONSTROUS on the background, and decorated it with Tim Holtz idea-ology 2024 Halloween Sticker Book and Tim Holtz idea-ology Sticker Book Postmarked.

The art journal page was trimmed with a piece of 6" X 9" watercolor paper. I applied the ink spray with water on the journal page. On a different piece of watercolor paper, I stamped the Halloween images with the black ink pad and colored them using Copic Markers. The images were cut and pasted on the art journal page. 


I stamped the sentiments using the black ink pad and Tim Holtz Cling Rubber Stamps UNDERTAKER, then added more sentiments with Tim Holtz idea-ology 2024 Halloween Sticker Book.
