Well, hello there! No, I didn't fall off the face of the earth! I can't believe it's been three years since I last posted a card. Where has the time gone!? I've been toying with the idea of blogging again for a while now. Then my beautiful friend, Effy Wild, came up with this challenge to blog along with her for 30 days. So here I am! I'll be sharing some of my art journaling pages, paintings, and sketches that I've created. Actually, I may even have a card or two that I've never shared!
I'm going to begin with my small Dylusions journal that I started some time back. I wanted to create this journal and fill it with my favorite quotes to pass down to my granddaughter, Emmaline. She and I share a love of art; we really enjoy painting together! I love that she and I have this special bond.
I created this page using various Distress Inks for the background. The stamped image is from Vera Lane Studio. Janet, the owner, creates images that are quirky and adorable. If you've never checked them out, you really should! The image is actually just a head so I collaged a dress for her and gave her a bouquet of flowers to hold. I printed the quote, inked it and adhered as shown. I sprinkled flowers around, because, well, it's all about the flowers! Stickles were added to finish the centers of the flowers.
So, that's it for me today! I hope you have a wonderful day and thanks for stopping by! Blessed be!
