Fly

Hello everyone who calls in to see me today.

I am sharing a hybrid journal page with you today, that I altered for Erika's

theme of  'In the sky/In the air  over at

Art Journal Journey 

I will also be able to join in over at

  Moo Mania and More

where the theme is..... Just one Word

As you can see from the photos I changed the base colours and  had fun

 adding some digital additions [notes in my sidebar].

It was a stamped and mop up colour page.  

The two birds on the wire are closely watching to see how far the  steampunk balloon will fly.

 I do think that the folk in it will be having a good day out in their flying machine.

 .

The fun continued when I decided

 that I must use this page.

What does the page look like in my journal now.

The dark rust shade. I never liked, so the result of how I covered that up you can see in this photo.

I used some scraps of papers, a bit of lace and a metal  flower  and a  Finnabair sticker, the quote by Cesare Pavese.  reads....

We do not remember days,

we remember moments.

Time does seem to fly, so remember to pause,  take a breath and enjoy the moment.

Happy's on sticks

Something more colourful again today.

I showed you a photo of the music paper , in my last post beside my cuppa

  [its still there on my desk]  and said I would share the results later.

I used my 8 x 8 inch Kraft Journal
A painted base,   a torn music sheet, modeling paste through a stencil, fussy cut  stamped images [Paper Artsy and All&create].

I coloured the additions with water coloured pens.

The parts that still look  white  have been  dusted with  a pale pink shade of distress ink

A bright  page to celebrate  and I say this quietly, that spring is showing its beauty and making folk feel happy to see even the smallest of flowers  making an appearance in the gardens.

make me smile.

I will be linking this page to,

Moo Mania and More

where the theme is Colour.

I hope its not to colourful to join Jo's theme at

Art Journal Journey

Hello Springtime.

Thank you for stopping by today, you are always very welcome here.

Out of the shadows....

Colour....

is theme over at Moo Mania and More.

I am really happy using colour in my journals  so this theme really appealed to me.

I began   by  spraying some yellow paint onto the blank page, then used  modeling past

 through  a stencil [one of Leonie's]

When dried out I used distress oxides and cotton buds to colour the face. I didn't want  to try my luck with pens to bring out the features, the surface wasn't very smooth

  More   shading  to cover the white area and one of my favourite TH stencils.

I used Lynne's affirmations word stamps.

Thank you for calling in, you are always welcome here.
