Same but different


 Hi There! Ever since Bev and Sam brought out the full colour and Greyscale catalyst cards, I've been meaning to have a go at something like this journal spread. Here's what I did.
I began by putting the same design of paper on opposite pages of my journal, one in greyscale and one in full colour. 

Once this was stuck to the page, I added some black soot distress oxide through a D'inkable in the same place on each side.
On a separate piece of card I stamped the Doodle Art gerbera and two butterflies, cutting the gerbera in half. I coloured in one pair with ecoline pens to match the background.
Just inking the centre of the butterfly I added the antennae and body to the pages, making sure there was enough room for the wings to lay flat.
I added the coloured flower and butterfly to the greyscale page and the white to the colour page. I also stamped the worker stamp a couple of times on each page in opposite corners.
I used white gel pen to add highlights to the coloured butterfly and flower....
and gelly roll moonlight florescent pens to add to the white butterfly and flower. 
Finally I added wordy stickers to both pages.
Here's another look at the finished pages. 
I used:
Dinkable from Set 3
Wordy stickers (I used 2B)
Versafine Clair black ink
Ecoline brush pens

Another Autumnal Journal Page

 

Hi There! I am here with another simple journal page inspired by Autumn, which is the theme of our challenge this month in the Bee Crafty Stamps Facebook Group.

I began by cutting a piece of greyscale catalyst card to fit my page in my 5x5" notebook. 
I blended Distress ink in autumn colours across the page and sponged walnut stain around the edges.
Using Spiced Marmalade Distress Oxide I stamped the small gerbera and some of the words randomly around the page
Using Versafine Clair Acorn ink I added the corner stamp at each corner to the background
Next I inked up the large leaf stamp from Journaling Essentials # in Black Versafine Clair and stamped it across the page. 
Finally I added the sentiment using Wordy stickers and used a white gel pen to add some faux stitching around the edges.

I used:
Distress ink in Peeled Paint, Crackling Campfire, Mustard Seed and Walnut stain
Distress oxide ink in Spiced Marmalade
Versafine Clair ink in Acorn and Nocturne
small square notebook (5x5")

Thanks for looking!
