OUR GUEST DESIGNER: ASHLEY RODGERS

 

Hello! Today I have an art journal style spread to share using the November Legendary Life Crafted kit and stamp sets.

 

I enjoy listening to Christian music while I create, and one of my favorite songs right now is “Start Right Here” by Casting Crowns. This song is so incredible and has a beautiful message. I was inspired to create a page based on the lyrics.

 

First, I smooshed some watercolors on the page to create a dreamy background. Then I used a pencil to write some of the lyrics while I listened to the song.

Next, I typed out some more lyrics and added them on top of my writing.

 

 I stamped some hearts from the November 2020 This is Life Legends stamp set. Then, I embellished the page with a few of the criss-crossed bandages from the die-cut ephemera pack. Using a little foam tape to pop them up adds more dimension to the page.

 

Some inky splatters add a nice bold contrast to the soft, watercolor background.

 

 On the right side, I stamped a couple sentiments from the November 2020 Traveler’s Notebook stamp set and added more song lyrics to finish the page.

 

Thanks so much for having me this month! I’ve had a wonderful time here, and I appreciate the whole Citrus Twist team. I look forward to playing more with all of their amazing products and telling even more stories. As always, happy creating, everyone!
