Add A Quote is the new challenge at Try it on Tuesday this fortnight and we'd love to see what quotes you can add to your project.
It's ages since I found time to play in my journal but this challenge just seemed to be the inspiration.
I started by spraying Antique Linen DI onto my page and moved it around with a tissue before using Victorian Velvet through a stencil. I had decided where my image and pieces of torn tissue were going, so avoided those areas and then stamped my quote direct to my page (with fingers crossed).
The rest of the DT have used some wonderful quotes, so please pop over to the main blog for all the details.
I haven't played along with Art Journal Journey for a while, but this month Erika has chosen Let's Face It for the theme, so I'm going to join in over there.
I've been a rubbish blogger lately, but I've been on quite a bit of Grandma duty as DD prepares to go back to work and has needed to do some refresher training as she has been off almost 2 years due to Covid rules and pregnant women. At least when she does return we'll have a 3 day routine.
Thanks for calling in and have a great day.

ReplyDeleteI love this pretty pink background and those roses Avril. It's so delicate and so nice when it's deep in the heart of winter here. That lady is beautiful too. I hope she is daydreaming and not worried about something-smile. Thanks for linking up to my challenge at AJJ also. It is much appreciated. Hope all is well. Hugs-Erika

ReplyDeleteYour journal page is beautiful. It is so very feminine and romantic. I love the addition of the fleur shapes in the background surrounding the beautiful woman's face, as well as the lovely roses. Your stamped quote was perfect. It turned out great. No crossed fingers needed. Thanks also for sharing this with us at Art Journal Journey using Erika's theme, too. It is perfect.
ReplyDeletePretty journal page with the beautiful soft background, and lovely quote!
ReplyDeleteGlad you got time to play in your journal, the face, and quote work oh so well with that vintage rose border. I can imagine the twins are getting so big now, I'm sure you are making the most of your Granny duties, enjoy.
