Documented Life Project 2015 – Week 16

Today I'm sharing what I created for Week 16 of
The Original Documented Life Project™ The Journal!

April’s Theme
Color Safari (Exploring Inks and Paints)

April 18 Challenge & Prompt
Art Challenge: Gelli Plate
Journal Prompt: A lot on my Plate

Inspired by the challenge, I created a colorful background with my 8" x 10" Gelli® Printing Plate and acrylic paint. Using my new Going Global stencil from StencilGirl Products, I added more acrylic paint, pink paint pen around the continents, an ART POPS™ arrow sticker from Roben-Marie Smith, a border of oval map decals at the bottom of the page, and black Stabilo. Inspired by the prompt, I journaled with black permanent pen withing the continents about the many things on my plate.

Below is a detail:

LOVE what my friend Maria McGuire created in her art journal with this new stencil, too! She has a wonderful tutorial on her blog, too, for creating this amazing color and texture! Be sure to check it out!

And don't forget to enter the GIVEAWAY for 2 of my new stencils: It's A Small World Latitude and It's A Small World Longitude AND a 4" round Gelli Plate®!!!
