Hi,
Do you decorate art journal covers? Before or after decorating the pages? Or during?
I decorated this art journal cover after I filled all the pages.
I prepared a video tutorial for you in which I show step by step how this cover was created.

I like ATCs very much. I really like the idea that I can trade cards with other artists. They're not big, so they don't take up much space. Just great.
I created mixed-media ATCs. They have so many layers that you can't fit them in an album, but I have a special box for such cards😊
How did I make them?
I covered the HDF bases with black gesso and glued small metallic flakes on the edge.
On the watercolour paper (which was smaller than ATC size) I used liquid acrylic, stamps, rub-ons and icing paste.
Then I chose some metal elements, chipboards and casts and covered them with black gesso, metallic paints and waxes.
At the end, I glued everything together.
