Hello and thanks for visiting, I've set myself a challenge this year - to play at journalling, I say to 'play' - because it feels like 'playing' and also I don't really know what I'm doing,( and they're only single pages at the moment but I will make a folder for them - better than spoiling a book just yet) but the online Creative Ink course did give me the push that I needed.
I've again taken inspiration from our challenge this fortnight at Try it on Tuesday which is Silhouettes - so out came Mr Umbrella Man, and of course he had to have raindrops - but the eagle eyed amongst you will notice that they look more like bombs, I kept thinking they didn't look quite right and it wasn't until I uploaded the photo that I realised they were upside down - silly me!! so warts and all as they say.
You still have one more week to link up to Tiot's challenge and you will find all the details here
Thanks for popping by and any comments you leave are really appreciated.

Lovely piece Avril - I did just the same with the raindrops, and it took weeks till I notices they were upside down! Hugs, Valerie
Fab page Avril, I can never get the raindrops to look realistic, love your sunshine and showers background

It's looks like a great playtime to me Avril and see my fav sunray stencil there as well. And I think with a bit of artistic licence the raindrops make good cobblestones.

Fabulous sentiment Avril, love this stamp too. xx {aNNie}
Wow, gorgeous Avril. Love the sun rays and the water droplets on the ground. Fabulous scene! hugs :)
A great quote on a wonderful page. Love the colors.
I love the layout and the colours that you've used and I think the sentiment works perfectly with the image. I hadn't noticed the raindrops being upside down till you mentioned them. I know exactly what you mean about journal pages, I think they look amazing but I never know where to start with them myself. I really like what you've made here though Avril X
Fab page Avril, something I need to get back onto
Love

This is FABULOUS! I just love those dew drops! Wow, and this color! Gorgeous!
Oh wow, fabulous combination of stamps! Brilliant background too. Those added raindrops are inspired!!
Fab journal page ..... I love the colours and the silhouettes are so striking. If you hadn't have said anything I probably wouldn't have noticed the raindrops were upside down!! Linda xx
This is lovely playtime, Avril - beautiful blended colours, and Umbrella Man always makes me happy! Love those giant water droplets on the ground too.
It's great that the individual pages are making you feel free to play... I really don't think you should think of it as "spoiling" a book though!!

Gorgeous design with beautiful colours and combination of images :) xx
Oh dear - I have fallen way behind again -- and I don't want to miss a thing!!!!!
So this is a journal page - wonderful -- I love every jot and tittle about it! The sentiment is perfect -- and that certainly is the truth. We don't find ourselves - we create ourselves.
