Just Flowers for AJJ

 For

 Art Journal Journey

I am  sharing with you my  attempts

at painting a couple of flowers, lots of paint and  eventually digital additions

My  theme choice for July ....

  In my garden there is...... a few wild flowers

This is how it all began, with my free magazine and the trusty scissors

The pages trimmed and stuck down in my  8 x8 inch journal.

I would love to have more  wild flowers in my garden.

Things were not  going well at this stage,    I got out the spray paints,
 spilled  the yellow and had to mop up the bench,

and pages, by which time they decided curly was the look of the day.

Things wouldn't get much worse,  so, have a go and paint a flower or two.

I nearly didn't show you the pages at this stage, before they had the digital additions,

but, I felt you needed a smile at my very  basic  creations.

My second spread for
Art Journal Journey
 today  is this  digital version using the original backgrounds

Adding digital images to the background.

I love seeing the hedgehogs in our garden in the evenings. even Meg is used  to their visits
 and doesn't bark a them any more.

The quote is one of AA Milne's

Thank you for your visit today, you are  always very  welcome .

Added elements from Mischief Circus kits.

It was hard to get photos of the double spread, 

they were photographed individually at first.
