Inspired by Dina Wakley: Using Multiple layers

[@julbea]

Layers work magic!

[@aliceadler4569]

Love this page!!! It reminds me of the rice paper I ordered from Australia that you designed!!! I love your vintage photo haul.

[@rozenart5768]

I absolutely love your work! I get so inspired by your choices of colors and shapes... tfs!!

[@karenbrown5174]

25 layers sounded so intimidating, but thinking back about all of your work that I absolutely love, I think it is your norm. I really love this page, especially your background.

[@raemarieboltwood8840]

Fabulous!!!!! Love this sooo much!!!!

[@joycemccullough7856]

Love all those layers and the vintage photo!

[@prettyboy54321]

I just adore your videos and, to put your mind at ease, if old photos of me were lying around just collecting dust, I would love the idea of them ending up somewhere where they actually made someone smile.

Such a cool page ....

Naimh - Wow - I am learning soooo much from you - your style is all your own, and watching you work is helping me find my own. I appreciate your fearlessness, and also your vulnerability. So human, so endearing

I absolutely love this page! Thanks for sharing!

[@elfincrafter]

Turned out awesome, Niamh 😊 When I first read that section of the book, I thought yikes, how on earth!! But reading it, it made sense. This is the first time I've seen someone use it as a guide for a page. Love it 😊❤

[@marcijlo]

Your page is stunning! The colors are gorgeous, what an inspiration! Thank you for sharing 🌹

[@janybunschoten2025]

WoW. I like this very much, so inspiring, i like the proces of so many layers, most of the time i stop with 2 of 3 layers, i must try it myself !!!

I just bought Art Journal Courage and started working my way thru it. I love, love what you have done.

[@elfincrafter]

It is an excellent book for changing your perception of your own work. I have loved at least 80% of my art journal pages, but I did always feel they lacked structure. So I began a colour exploration journal using Dina's advice, allowing white space. I found my pages improved & I thought more carefully about colour & where I placed my focal point. Looking back at my own work, I'm more critical of what I could have done differently. I feel I've grown. 😊❤

[@deborahruth5072]

@@elfincrafter thank you for sharing your process. I am hoping for the same growth as I move thru the book.

[@elfincrafter]

@@deborahruth5072 you will definitely achieve it! The book weaves a special kind of magic on you. It's like a moment when suddenly all makes sense. Happy crafting. 😊❤

[@pipsmommy]

what is the name of the botanical stencil by Dina Wakley? Lovely work!

[@NiamhBaly]

Thanks. Its called the branches mask and stencil set.

[@isaacdogkeith9230]

LOVE all your videos - hey what kind of pen are you writing with around the 10:30 mark? Thanks!

[@NiamhBaly]

It’s called a fude ball pen- it goes over everything and has quite a broad tip roller ball. It takes a little while to dry but I like it. I tend to use the posca paint pen pc 1m bullet tip in black and white these days though instead

[@isaacdogkeith9230]

@@NiamhBaly Awesome Thanks so much for the reply!!!

[@betzie2]
