I just love Graphic 45 Nature Sketchbook collection. It's like it was made for me. The love at first sight! :) So I went and played a little bit more with it. I took a glass jar and made a tree trunk with it. I fussy cut a bunch of butterflies from the Nature Sketcbook papers and attached them to a wire and position them so it seems like butterflies are flying from their nest in the tree trunk. I fussy cut also a lot of grass plants and ferns along with some tiny insects and bees. I like how it turned out. I added a quote that is a part of the collection and is one of my favourite ones. It says: "Happiness is like a butterfly. If you sit down quietly, it may light upon you."
I made a video tutorial and you can find it at the end of this post. Hope you'll like my project and enjoy the tutorial.
I admired all of the art journal pages out there for some time now but I kind of couldn't gather the courage to make one myself. But yesterday I decided to jump right into in. And let me tell you... I enjoyed it so so much and I'm looking forward finding some time to create some more art journal pages.
For my first one I chose "Nature Sketcbook" from newest Graphic45 paper collection. And of course I added a lot of 13arts goodies, gorgeous Scrapiniec chipboards and few Wild orchid crafts small green roses. I hope you'll like it. I'll be happy to hear your opinion. I've also made a new youtube tutorial for you to go along. I'll be happy if you like it, share it and subscribe if you liked my video. :)
Have a great day!
Hugs,
Aleksandra
The project fits perfectly to this month's color scheme at Words&Paintery:
