Snails pace.


I am nearly frightened to say 'hello' from ' sunny', Yorkshire.  We had an amazing weekend with the family enjoying the first two days of the Tour de France.  For those of you who know of  our recent  caravan adventures, not a bit of mud in sight. We are enjoying our away time, no chores, just relaxing and going  with the flow.  Once again I have packed my journal, with my small take away stash and have enjoyed  getting inky or should I say painty.

Art Journal Journey  this month and the theme is --- Flower Power

The page is coloured with acrylic paints.
Some stamped flower images [Joffy from Paper Astsy] these were water coloured.
A little snail with his hat on hiding in the flower border. I tried to lighten and enlarge  this  cropped piece  so you could spot him, sorry it looks a bit blurred.
The flowers in the foreground were cut from a printed sheet.


Thank you for taking time to stop by. Your comments are always appreciated.

    This is stunning Yvonne-the images and the colours all go so well together to make this page.

    You spoke too soon if you are near the Yorkshire coast as it is dark, windy and wet here today-hope it is still nice where you are.

    Love Chrissie x

    It's lovely, Yvonne - full of the sunshine and delight of your non-muddy holidaying! Gorgeous flowers - both the JOFYs and the fussy cut ones, and the sky is so brilliant - simple, but so effective.
