Bonnie's Christmas WC Journal Tutorial #3

Hello Ai fans!

It's time for Bonnie's third WC Christmas Journal tutorial!

Tune in at 10 am PST on Facebook,  Wednesday, Aug. 17th  to see her next pages.

***Please take note...the original LinkDeli where you upload your cards apparently maxed out.  I've added a new one at the very bottom of the page where you can add your beautiful art.  

If you missed her LIVE, you can view it here.

There are 7 new sets with images,  a new Christmas sentiment set and 2 new die sets!

All of these amazing sets can be used individually to make cards or other projects or they can be used together to create a magnificent journal for yourself or as a gift for someone.

We will share photos of her pages here, as well as links to the products she used in case there's anything you don't have yet that you'd like to add to your collection.

Bonnie will be going through the journal starting with the cover and adding pages as she goes.
If you don't have the exact supplies she's using just use what you have.

For her most recent tutorial Bonnie will be making this.

She'll be using Tombow markers 249, 526, 565, 856 and 969 to color her pages.
She'll also be using a black micron pen,  Dr. PH Martin Bleed Proof White and the 5543 – Journal Template Die Set.

Most of the frames and dies she'll be using come right in the Journal Template Die Set or the Journal Clasp Die Set.

All of the new WC Journal sets are sized perfectly to fit in the frames and on the journal pages though many other sets would work.

You'll see there are lots of pockets to tuck little treasures away.

We hope you'll stop by and paint along with her.

We'd also LOVE to see your projects, so if you scroll down, you can upload your photos so that we can see what you've created.  You'll upload your pages just like you would a challenge card.  Please include your first name and last initial when you upload so people know whose project it is.  Also, keep in mind that if you link from a private IG page or FB group we may not be able to comment on your work.  That doesn't mean we aren't thrilled to see it!

If you share on Instagram we'd love for you to tag it #AiWCChristmasJournal (I don't think any of the capitol letters actually matter...lol)

I'll be updating this page every two weeks with the latest tutorial.  You will be able to find the current tutorial at the top of the page under the little tab called Bonnie's Journal.

NEW FRIDAY VIDEO - Episode 4! Three Pages in the Christmas Journal Tutorial Using Copic Markers by Janet

Happy Friday everyone! I'm making progress on my Christmas Journal using Copics with three pages this week. I've pulled out two holiday stamps from the store. They are 5178 - Gingerbread Cubbies and 4927 HM - Holiday Mansion Accessory Set. I've even made an interactive shaker page using the beautiful frame in the 5543 Watercolor Journal Template Die Set.

Click on the link below to go to the video. Below are close ups of the three pages. In the video, I show each step used to create these pages.

Page 1 features the oh, so cute Gingerbread house and gingers from the Gingerbread Cubbies set. The shine you see is from being sprayed with Silver Glitter Dust.

Page two shows off four of the cute images in the Holiday Mansion Accessory Set.

Page three makes use of the pretty frame in the Watercolor Journal Die Set as a shaker window. 

Thanks so much for stopping by today. I hope you are enjoying the entire Journal line!

Wishing you a very crafty day!

NEW VIDEO - Episode 3! Christmas Journal Tutorial Using Copic Markers by Janet

Hi everyone! It's Friday and that means it's time for another episode in my Ai Journal video tutorial series. Instead of watercolor, I'm using Copic markers and using a mix of the new Watercolor Journal stamps and other non-watercolor holiday stamps. It's just a different way to approach the journal if you want to use Copics or watercolor just isn't your thing. Today's pages follow fairly closely with Bonnie's layouts with just a few different twists. 

You can watch the tutorial by clicking below. When you visit, leave a comment to let me know you watched and what you liked best. Don't forget to watch all the videos in the series for tons of ideas and Copic coloring tips.

Thanks so much for stopping by today. I hope you are enjoying the entire Journal line!

Wishing you a very crafty day!
