Flight: Art Journal Page
Hi everyone! Happy Saturday!!!
I’ve got an art journal page for you. I had a happy accident on this one (my tape stuck to my Eiffel Tower) and tried out a couple new techniques. I went with a little more Shabby Chic style with this which is one of my favorite looks.
I started out using Dina Wakley Turquoise paint… and then the layering began!
I added Texture paste and layered more paints on top till I had the look I wanted.
I cut out the Leaf Cluster Die from Sticky Back Canvas, then colored with Distress Paints. The texture on this page makes me happy!
I’ve shot a full process video, and had to speed it up quite a bit to fit in the time allowed. I have all the supplies listed below if you have any questions.
I’ve got a Blog Candy Alert!! Follow our blog via email and comment on this post for a chance to win a special blog candy!

Oh my goodness, Shari, this is gorgeous! So many lovely layers. Thank you for sharing. Great tutorial and love your videos. Appreciate your hard work :)
Love this! It never ceases to amaze me how you can figure out what layers to add to get the effect you want.

I love living like an artist, vicariously, through watching your art journal videos! Love all the layering and texture on this one. How do you decide when the project is “done?”

I love that you used the tower even though it had an accident! I follow the blog by email.

Watching this image unfold was like beholding a butterfly emerge from its crysalis. So amazing and lovely! I just love to watch a Shari Carroll video any day, any time. So great.
Gorgeous page Shari. Love all the layers and textures.
I love how this page turned out and those butterflies are beautiful.
Sooo beautiful! I love the colors
Love the soft colors with the pop of green!
A stunning project – as always! Thanks.
Wow, so many fun elements. It’s what I love about your projects, Shari. Something different every time!
You show that a journal page does not have to fit within a space predetermined by a bound volume. All the layers built the foundation for a delicate statement about freedom – I love every bit of it.
I’m always looking forward to your videos Shari:)
Love the pretty butterflies.
Beautiful card
