Butterflies for...... Art Journal Journey

 June

and a new theme for the month

'Butterflies'

  chosen for us  by Mia from  Craftartista

 our  Host for this month over at Art Journal Journey

Please pop over to AJJ to read the details and to see Mia's inspiration page for her theme.



Butterflies are  lovely to see in our gardens at this time of the year,

 they are not as colourful  here in the UK

 as the ones I added digitally to my journal page,

 but they look so delicate and magical as they flutter round the flowers.




This is how the page started before the butterflies were added.

A second print from a stencil, a really old script stamp and finally  a  piece torn from the corner of  a floral napkin .


Thank you for calling in to see me today and I hope you will join us at AJJ this month.

Stay safe.

  1. This is really stunning, Yvonne. I never imagined you were using a napkin. You certainly know how to put them to good use. This is a wonderful entry for Mia's butterfly theme, dear.

  5. This is such a wonderful page Yvonne. I love the beautiful spring colors, and of course, all the butterflies. They may not be that pink in your garden but I bet they are also just as pretty. Have a wonderful start to the new month and I agree with Chris, hope you feel you can get out a bit now. Hugs-Erika

  10. A very lovely page, Yvonne. The napkin's the perfect touch. I am hoping you have gotten out for that walk you mentioned a little while back. I'm in the worst funk myself. Everyone around me is making plans to get social again, but because of my Arthurs I can't risk it yet. People like me don't get the same antibody protection amount as most from the vaccine. It's been 15 months and counting in self-isolation, but I haven't caught it, thank God. xoxo

  12. How fortunate to have such a great start for your butterfly page. It was lovely before but now it is even more so. I love how the bottom left corner has a concentration of colour and then it goes much quieter as it reaches the rest of the page. Gorgeous butterflies and words. Just perfect! A real summers day.
    Hugs, Neet xx
