Ephemera and Stamps Art Journal Page

Hi everyone, today I'm sharing a step by step guide to creating this art journal page using ephemera and stamps from Julia McNeill Crafts. 

To begin, I created a background by smooshing picked raspberry distress oxide onto a piece of acetate. I spritzed this lightly with water, then dabbed the ink onto the page. I then added some picked raspberry distress spritz and left the page to dry.
Next, I stamped the tape measure image using Versafine Clair Nocturne ink.
Then, I stamped the largest stamp, from the Stamplimentals Edition 2 stamp set using Versafine Clair Charming Pink ink. I also added the smaller of the two background stamps, from the Splats and Ladders set, using the same black ink pad.
I added some of the squares, from the Picnic Blanket stencil, using Picked Raspberry distress oxide. 
I, then, added some of the trellis, from the Rose Trellis stencil, using Black Soot distress oxide. 
On seperate card, I stamped the camera, film and bith sentiments from the Oh! Snap stamp set. I coloured the images with distress watercolour pencils. 

I then chose the ephemera I wanted to use from the Pastel Petals Bit Box Bits pack.
Finally, I glued all the ephemera and stamped images to my background. I edged the sentiments with a black pen, just to lift them off the page.
