Art Journal Feature with Darkroom Door
Hi everyone and happy Saturday! It’s Shari here with a special art journal feature. Darkroom Door has created two stamp sets exclusively for Simon Says Stamp’s STAMPtember® event!
Love these stamps, so many possibilities! The one on the left is Warm Wishes and on the right is Enjoy The Journey. I’ve used a few stamps from each set for my art journal page today. I started with the flowers by clear embossing them on my background to create a resist.
I used some of the new Prima Arts Basic mediums to create some layers, and Dylusions sprays as paint. Once happy with my background, I stamped more of the Darkroom Door images with black ink over the top of all my treatments.
My Dylusins inks gave me a happy surprise, my brown turned out kind of purple when applied over the Crackle Paste. Delicious!!!
I shot a video of my process and this time I did it “live” since I used a lot of new product that needed some explanation. I’ve split it up in to two parts, Enjoy!
And on to Part 2.
I hope you like the voice format, if so, I’ll do more like this in the future. Thanks for stopping by today!

It’s lovely, Shari! Your journal page has such depth and beauty.
That world map in the “enjoy the journey” set is really great!

So pleased to see Darkroom door stamps being used in such a nice way
What gorgeous stamps. Just love the amazing way it all goes together. Thinking the travelling set would be great
What a great page! Thank you for explaining EVERYTHING! So many cool products…
What a wonderful assortment of stamps you’ve used!
That page lookes amazing. I’m really drawn to these colours. Will have to postpone watching the video until later, but I like the idea of the video being at normal speed, since I have no experience with art journaling or with most of the products used.
Love it! I love art journaling, it calms my mind like nothing else. Thanks for sharing!
Love everything about this!
I like the voice format – you use so many products I did not even know about. Since I’ve never tried art journaling, I can learn a lot from your explanation. And, as always, I am amazed by your journal page. They look so messy at first, but turn out absolutely awesome.
Great stuff!
So pretty! And I love these stamps.
Inspiring, as always! Thanks for sharing.
Wonderfully gorgeous. I had no idea the Dylusions would work so well over the paste, never tried it! Thanks so much for an awesome project! The stamp sets are really must-haves:)
Have a great day!!~kim
