Hi dear creative friends, although we already are some weeks into 2024, I would like to wish you the best and happiest creative year. I started my first inspiration using my first love when it comes to mediums. Finnabairs micapowder, they are so versatile, you just have to love them.

Hi,
Do you decorate art journal covers? Before or after decorating the pages? Or during?
I decorated this art journal cover after I filled all the pages.
I prepared a video tutorial for you in which I show step by step how this cover was created.

I’m going through a bit of a green and rust phase at the moment, so today's project reflects that (much like my July project did lol).
But this time, instead of a very two-dimensional art journal I’ve decorated a very three-dimensional wooden box.
I started with a Finnabair stencil to make some texture using 3D gel (or modelling paste). Then I built my composition by glueing it all into place with heavy body gel.
I love Finnabair metal flowers and leaves for building 3D compositions. They go especially well with this woodland nature elf/fairy theme.
I’m giving this to a friend who is a fellow “Elder scrolls “ fan.
Thanks for visiting the design team blog.
