Art Journal Feature You Hold My Heart
Hi everyone! It’s Shari here with an art journal page. Before I get started, my first order of business today is to wish all the men folk out there a Happy Father’s Day!
I’ve created a super fun page today… more animated than I usually do. Take a peek. Bright and cheery right?
I’ve used my Dylusions Small Journal since my page is basically flat. I had a blast with this one, building layers or papers… then adding in shading with Faber Castell Big Brush markers. I found my inspiration on Pinterest, but unfortunately I can’t find the person who created it to give them credit.
I used my stash of papers to create the trees, hills and background. Then I set a couple birds and a hand cut heart in the trees. I finished everything off with some slight doodling with a fine pen around the trees and hills to give them some definition.
I’ve shot a full process video for you, and as usual had to speed it up to fit it in the time allowed. Enjoy!
Before I go, I have a blog candy alert for you. Be sure to follow our blog via email and comment on this post for a chance to win a special blog candy!
I have used papers from my stash but have listed several for you below that would work great for this project. Hope you have a great day!

Just one word … WOW !!!
I am so loving your art journaling pages Shari! You have inspired me to give this a try. Thanks so much for sharing.
What fun, I wonder if I could use any of the old journals I have lying around or if it needs special paper journal to hold up to the inks. I will have to give it a try
Very nice, as usual. I learned that you use multi matte medium as you would Mod Podge. Didn’t know that.
very cute! Thanks for the monthly inspiration!
This journal page is so adorable! Love the freshness of the colors and the happiness of the design! Simply wonderful!
