On Thursday, I'd looked with interest a this months new theme before going out into the garden and the first thing I noticed was how lovely the birdsong was on such a sunny morning, and I thought "perfect" my inspiration!
A light painty wash, torn napkins and the quote from Artistic Outpost's Serenity set of stamps along with a couple of music notes stamped randomly.
Thanks for calling in and enjoy your day.

The birdsong at the moment is particularly musical. . We had a bird chirping away in the tree outside the dining room and we were trying to pin point where abouts in the tree he was and what he was as it wasn't a blackbirds song. Your journal page looks lovely. Hugs Mrs A.
Hi Avril, I too have noticed how loud and how beautifully the birds are singing on a morning, I think it's a wonderful start to the day. You did right to use this as inspiration for your journal page as it's fabulous. I would never have thought of using a napkin but it looks great along with the stamps that you've used. I hope that you're keeping well and happy. Sandra xx
Wonderful journal page, so pretty and cheerful, there's nothing nicer than bird song. Hugs, Valerie
Hello Avril!
Your nice page catched the feeling of this time of the year perfectly. I also love to sit
in our garden and listen the birds songs and enjoy all the wonderful flowers and Green around me. A garden is always a little piece of heaven.
Hope you feel well.
Big Hugs

Its a gorgeous page Avril. I agree about the bird song, they are quite vocal around here as well, and the sound is lovely to hear.

Such a gorgeous page Avril, love how you put it all together! Just the thing to cheer us all up! It's dull and grey here too...:o(
Birdsong is the best alarm call in the morning, how could anyone not be inspired by those sweet tunes. A beautiful journal page inspired by nature Avril and what a super quote.
Hugs Tracey xx

And your wonderful page makes as happy as the enchanting singing of birds in the morning! A wonderful composition, simply B*E*A*U*T*I*F*U*L
Thank you very much dear Avril for this fabulous entry linked to Gill's new theme at Art Journal Journey!
Happy new week with sunshine and twittering of birds for you ! Hugs ♥ Susi
Oh this is really beautiful Avril and as I smile reading the quote, I can hear our male blackbird singing outside...I love listening to their songs..funny how you get to learn their individual songs. This male doesn't seem to have a wife yet and didn't have one last year at all :(
I love the napkins and stamps that you used.
Thank you for sharing what inspired you and joining in at AJJ.
Hope your weather is better today, we had sunshine Sunday but is grey again at present.

This page is so beautiful Avril. I love the singing birds too. Every morning, very early, they wake me and both my neighbours have an aviary, so I hear a lot of different birds. Lenie xx
Love the bird song theme you created Avril, another beautiful page....xx
I don't get that many singing birds where I live in the states. Instead, I will take inspiration from this gorgeous entry you shared with us at Art Journal Journey. Such a beautiful and romantic page and I'm so glad you joined us again at AJJ.
Wonderful journal page - so bright and happy and who doesn't love to hear birds singing in the trees - as long as they don't sing before 8 in the morning!!

Wow, yet another beautiful journal page! I love the way you have scattered the music notes around the page and your flowers and bird look so pretty - perfect 😁. Have a great day! J 😊 x
I truly love this and saw immediately what had inspired you before I read your post! Hugs, Chrisx
yes, the birds do seem to sing their hearts out every morning...they are so happy for a new day. Lovely art work you've created!
