I would have posted this sooner but we have been having some problems with the internet - all seems to be well today though!
This will be my last page for Wendy's 'Birds' theme at Art Journal Journey. I have really enjoyed this theme and Wendy has been an excellent host, so Thank You Wendy!
I must confess to this page being brought about by wanting to use the fabulous poppy seed stamp by Tracy Evans and the flowers stencil by Janet Klein(both from Aall and Create)
I had brayered some spare paint onto the page so I added some stencilling and stuck on a piece of gelli print that wasn't so happy with.
I used one of the flowers on the stencil as a spritzed stamp and and the other onto my page then drew around both outlines.
I stamped the poppy seed head and added the bird from a set I bought in France when out with my SIL.
I used a gold glitter pen to highlight parts of the stamp and flower.
As the internet seemed to be OK I have signed up for next years Wanderlust classes - there was a very good discount being offered and from the look of it I'm going to have some fun!
I hope all is well with everyone - we will be in Tier 3 of restrictions next week when we come out of this second lockdown so still being very cautious -hey ho!!
Thanks for looking, Chris

This is beautiful Chris. I love the bird on poppy seed pod, as well as the more artistic version of flowers. It was a good art month, wasn't it?

Classes sound fun! Learning is so fun and inspiring. I see why you wanted to use the stamps and stencils as they are lovely. The bird looks perfect on top too. Wonderful mix of elements, colors, and details. Wish I had another day off to play but need to be happy with the last 4 days. Lovely post, Chris. Hugz
