Love Bird journal page

 Hi There! As it is February I thought I would have a little play with some hearts in my 5x5 notebook journal.

I began by cutting a piece of catalyst card to fit the page, rounding the corners and sticking it down.

Next, I used the same design of catalyst card but in greyscale to cut a heart from. I matched it up to the design and drew through the 4" easy frame heart inkable.

Once I had cut out the heart, I sponged some uncharted Mariner around the heart and around the edge of the page. 

Using a blue pen from the gellyroll moonlight pen set, I added some hearts through the dinkable at the top of the page. 

I stuck down the greyscale heart, matching up the papers and added some faux stitching and highlights with the blue and white gellyroll pens.  

On a scrap of white card I stamped the words love and you from Mixed Messages #3 in versafine clair inks. I also stamped a small bird from Journaling essentials #6, cutting them all out. 

Finally, I added them to the page using matte medium and shaded a little pencil around love on the greyscale heart. 

Here is a look at the finished page again alongside the one opposite that I completed in my facebook live last week. you can find it here.
