Art-Zines and watercolors





Hello Friends
am sharing some Art-Zine I made using Twinkling H2O's by ColourArte and some stamps and Washi Tape. I made these for gifting my friends using Twinkling H2O’s . These are 7cm x 11cm and 7cm x 10 cm in size

(The word zine is short for magazine or fanzine, and refers to "self-publications, motivated by a desire for self-expression, not for profit", according to the Barnard Zine Library. The Oxford English Dictionary defines zine exclusively as a shortened form of fanzine.)
ColourArte Supplies :
Other Supplies:
Water color paper, stamps , washi Tape , archival inks
Procedure:
I used a 23 x 30 cm sheet of water colour paper and prepared the Twinkling H2O’s by spritzing with water and allowed to sit for 7-10 minutes
In the meanwhile cut and scored the water colour sheet in eight sections……..
Fold and crease your Zine and mark the page numbers  with a pencil so that it is easy to see the orientation of the pages once you start coloring and decorating…….
Zine 1……start adding colors………..

let the background colors dry and then add stenciling with contrasting colors using a sponge and Twinks ……….
Zine 1…The cover page…..Added washi tape ( the girl and the chevron strip) and sentiment ( stamped on tissue paper with archival ink and adhered with decoupage glue) ……..
stamping on tissue paper and washi strips……this is page 2…
 page 3……..
 Backpage…Zine 1…….

pages 2-3.  Zine 1……….. 

 pages 4-5 Zine 1………..
pages 6-7 Zine 1………..
a close up of the cover after stamping wit texture stamps with black archival ink……….
Zine 2….inside pages 4-5……..stamping with archival black and plum, the girl and sentiment are both washi tape…
Zine 2…inside pages 6-7….
Zine 2….cover page………the drips to frame the washi tape girl using Twinks…..
Here are Zine 1&2 Cover pages………I added some beads and silk twine on the spine and paper clips as closure……….

Your art zines are wonderful, the Twinkling H2Os create such a beautiful and colourful background and I love how you layered up with your stamping and stencilling too. Thank you so much for joining in our Mini Marvels challenge at A Vintage Journey.

As someone who has no skill with watercolor techniques nor this style of art...I am just in awe of your work! So bright and lovely and soft all at the same time! Thanks for sharing your work with us at the Mini Album Makers Challenge!
