Looking for rainbows

 Hi everyone, you will be pleased to know that todays page is a little more cheery.

We switched off all communications yesterday afternoon, a very rainy one, and watched The Secret Garden - I love the story, but this time the locations were in a variety of country gardens all linked together to be one big CGI garden! Well, you know me and my love of gardens so I was instantly lifted out of the doldrums!

I made this water colour rainbow a couple of weeks ago and fortunately as my bad mood lifted it was there waiting to be used!

I used part of a new stamp from Indigoblu by Asia Marquet down the page and added a scrap of master board, a music star that seems to have been in my scraps for ages and a wrapper from one of the biscuits we bought on a trip to Tatton Park to eat with our flask coffee, so it's a happy memory page too!

I added some doodles around the edge of the page.

I have one more page for my Hold The Line theme at Art Journal Journey and I have loved seeing so many different interpretations of the theme, Thank you all so much for your support.

Thanks for dropping by, Chris

    Wow, Chris. This is absolutely amazing. It is truly colorful as you promised yesterday. I think you did an excellent job with the colors and the doodles, too. It's simply a perfect example of your theme at Art Journal Journey, and I've loved every minute of it.

    I'm so happy to read today you are more cheery and what a beautiful piece this is oozing those radiant rainbow of colours held in place with that fabulous line work stamp. I loved the secret garden book as a child, I often hoped to find one myself everytime I came across an ivy wall but i'm still looking. I may treat myself to watch the new version of the film this weekend.
    Take care & reward yourself with another feel good movie Hugs Tracey xx

    A love this page. It colors my day. It is a nice thought that there are a lot of rainbows behind that big layer of clouds we have today.

    What a happy page Chris. I can tell your spirits had lifted. I love the rainbow colors and the lines are perfect. The wrapper is really really fantastic, and there are so many lines there also. As I said in my post, thanks for a great challenge this month. I enjoyed myself a lot. Hugs-Erika
