Hello everyone! Anastasia is here with an altered art journal cover. In this project, I would like to show that even not-super-dimensional composition can be beautiful with Finnabair moulds. This cover decor will allow you to store your journals among others.

I used Tissue Paper in the background to make it more interesting. Then I added White Gesso and White Crackle paste to the edges. To colour the background, I used Liquid and Metallique acrylic paints.

All mould casts I glued on the background with 3D Gel. Then I coloured them with Mica Powders from Golden Hour set, Liquid Acrylics and a touch of Aged Brass wax.

More details you can find in the video tutorial. I hope you enjoy it!

Hugs,

Anastasia(aka nastyalena)

Hello, friends!
Today I want to show you the male notebook. I created it in grunge style.


In the background, I wanted to make an imitation of metal sheets. To do this, I glued ATC cards to cardboard. Then I covered the background with Black Gesso and then added Metallique paints.


Next, I mixed the Light Paste and Metallique paint. Using a stencil, I simulated the bolts. After the paste dried, I applied Liquid Acrylics to the surface and got the effect of rusty metal. But even this seemed to me not enough. To achieve a more grungy effect, I covered the background with black Impasto paint, dried it and removed it in some places with nail polish remover. At the very end, I covered the background with satin varnish and added stamps.

I painted the chipboard decor with a Rust Effect Pastes. Using waxes and Liquid Acrylics, I changed the color of the metal embellishments. I glued the decor with Heavy Body Gel. At the very end, I added mica Flakes and Black Sand. It remains to assemble the structure and the notebook is ready.
You can watch the creation process in this video. Enjoy, Anastasi.
