I loved this stamp from the first time I saw it.
This is how the page started, using Jenni Bowlin paints(the colours have the most beautiful names) really creamy and react well with a spritz of water!
From here it was a case of stencils, stamps and doodles with part of a lattice die cut and some packaging from some new coffee cups.I stamped text over and over itself to make a pattern rather than to read the text.
Lettering was done with good old medium Pitt pen.
We are back home now for a while so hoping to catch up a bit!!
Thanks for looking,Chris

Beautiful page Chris, some wonderful colours and techniques. You could enter this into our Mixed Media World challenge it would fit right in.

Speaking of catching up, I think I'm FINALLY caught up. I can't believe how far behind I got. That's not to say it won't happen again, since I'm still working on that AB. You put so much into your pages. This one is no exception. I see layers and layers and layers to this, and then you added the focal image. What a beauty and a great journal page! BTW, have I mentioned I have stencil envy (grin)?
Wonderful page Chris! Love the lattice behind your image and the colours are so soft and dreamy! hugs :)
Really nice, Chris.....it looks quite grungy.
I like your use of cardboard.

Chris, this is really beautiful, I love your stencilling and your colour choices are wonderful - and then that LP stamp - love it!! Hugs, Anne xx
Just saw your comment about the bulbs. The dark green foliage is for Naked Ladies or Surprise Lilies. They are called both, but I don't know their botanical name. The foliage dies out in a few weeks, then the flowers appear in late summer. They are on a single stalk and have one or more lilies on each stalk. Hope that helps, because you'll have to wait awhile before these flowers appear (grin).
Love the fantastic background and the super image. Brilliant, Chris!
Hugs, Mar
Love the layers in your beautiful stormcloud background - and the lettering is fabulous.
