Creative Layers: Adding Floral Stencils to My Sketchbook Swap

​

In this video, I continue working in the beautiful art journal my YouTube friend Luz sent me as part of our sketchbook swap. Inspired by the natural theme of the journal, I added floral stencil work to several layouts, enhancing the organic feel of the pages. I worked in three different sections of the book, layering more details, paint, and texture to bring the pages to life. This collaborative journal is evolving beautifully, and I love how each addition builds on the last. Watch as I share my creative process, experiment with stencils, and add new layers to this inspiring art journal project!
