My current favourite starting point for art journal pages is Gelatos. I've been using them for a long while now and can see then continuing to be a firm favourite for years to come!! I was able to match Promarker colours well to make the image from That Craft Place for perfectly!
So this is yet another art journal page about my love of art journaling! I seem to have a recurring theme!
Thank you as always for popping by and keep an eye out soon for a GIVEAWAY on this blog and social media!

Hi Sam, this is AMAZING!!! I so love all the colour and it just looks perfect. I think you need to do a step by step Tutorial for everyone.... well for me lol. When i do a page it ends up looking a sludgy mess and nothing like your bright and vibrant pages. Absolutely LOVE this.
