Maybe I should have an alternate title - 'What a Difference Some Spatters Make!'
This is what I finished up with
Onto a stencilled flower background I added some scraps, words and a Sizzix Tim Holtz tattered Butterfly that I won from Craft Stamper Magazine challenge. I added some random brown inked stamps and left it - I wasn't really happy with it.
Oh! You want to see it?
Of course, this morning(quite early) I realised what it was....spatters of course, don't know why I couldn't workout out as I really do love spattering my pages!I used Vintage Photo Distress Ink.
You can also see a little bit of doodling too......aah! that's better!
While I am here I will remind you that Try It On Tuesday's challenge - 'Use Stencil or Two' has just over another week to run.
I would like to enter at More Mixed Media Fun Anything Goes challenge where there is an option to use yellow (which is in the background to my stencilling!)
Thanks for looking, Chris

yes, you can't beat a few splatters! Great page.
beautiful page!
For some reason, I can't get a good handle on splatters. I think it's a technique that somehow eludes me. You made a wonderful and fun page, splatters and all. I like that butterfly, too. It's different from ones I've seen in the past. Thanks for sharing this beauty with us at Art Journal Journey, too, dear Chris.
Lovely piece, gorgeous colours. Have a great, new week, hugs, Valerie
Love these neutrals, Chris - the page is wonderful with and without the splatters, though I do tend to like splatters, if I'm honest. Great words, too - sometimes we do carry things into the next day and it's not always a good thing!

It is funny how if you give a page a little time the magic element comes to you! Those splatters really do finish off the page. And who doesn't love butterflies? Happy new week Chris. Hugs-Erika
Such a beautiful page! The butterfly matches the quote wonderfully and I so enjoyed finding our how you created it too 😁. I hope you had a lovely weekend and wishing you a happy new week! J 😊 x

Lovely page & lovely splatters! xx
I'm pleased you shared both versions Chris. The splatters do seem to make your fantastic page come alive.

A fabulous page Chris, love the muted colours and the splatter. Thank you of joining us on Art Journal Journey.
Yes! The splatter made all the difference. :)
Such lovely gentle springtime colours and the butterfly is the perfect focal point... and you know me and my splatters - can never have too many as far as I'm concerned!
