Crack Me Up

Hi everyone, today I'm sharing a step by step guide to creating this art journal page created using AALL and Create's Crack Me Up stamp set with the Reel Haze die set and a paper from the Archive Tales pad.

To begin, cut one of the Archive Tales papers to fit the art journal page. Use a blending tool to edge the piece with Lisa Horton Cloud 9 Tree Bark ink, then glue to the page. 

Cut two sets of the Reel Haze die, one in black and one in white. Swap the centres. Put the white frame and black centres aside for another project.

Glue the frame to the page.

Ensure the white pieces are the correct way up to fit back in the frame. Stamp the Crack Me Up birds heads on to each piece using Versafine Clair nocturne ink. 

Colour the images and backgrounds. I used distress watercolour pencils and added details with gel pens.

Stick the images in to the frame.

Add a sentiment from the Les Sentiments  pack.

Here's another look at the complete page.
