Journal 52 and its already week 20.
The prompt we were given this week was Book Inspiration.
I love reading books, and like many authors, I choose a book to suit my mood. One thing comes that high on my list when reading a book, is that it must have an ending. Not necessarily happy, but a definite conclusion. I went back in time for my inspiration book, . A Secret Garden by Fances Hodgson Burnet.Using the title as the prompt for the background and flowers. The actual cut out book print pieces I used came from old books picked up in junk shops.
I have been seeing some fabulous journal pages in many of the inspiring blogs I visit.
Many times I have have thought I would join in at the Art Journal Journey but never quite had the courage to do so. However, the theme is Circles and maybe , my round flowers and background splodges will be okay.
Thank you for taking the time to visit, the comments you leave are always appreciated.
I may not get to visit you all for a few days, but will catch up soon.
A wonderful summery page. I love your bright pink flowers and the use book pages.
