On it's own...

Hi everyone, I'm a bit under the weather at the moment, waiting for a phone call from the doctor.

I've been making journal pages to distract myself but then can't sit at the computer for long!

I used one of my favourite Aall and Create sets by Tracy Evans (if you know the set you know there will be something else coming along soon)

My background has blue paint on it and I added stencilling through an Aall and Create hexagon stencil and used a deeper blue through a Dina Wakley stencil.

I stamped and fussy cut the flower and the vase(the vase is on a pale green background but it doesn't show here!) I then stamped onto the page and overlaid the flower. I added some text script and some circles that I cut from some unwanted leftover papers. The quote is a Paper Artsy stamp.

I am joining in with Sheila's 'A Single Flower' theme at Art Journal Journey

Simon Says Stamp Monday - Art Journal

Simon Says Stamp Wednesday - Beautiful Blossoms

Thanks for looking, Chris

    That is a great quote, Chris, and it is especially good for the “Single Flower” theme.
    I like your Single Flower in the vase a lot and the whole piece is beautiful with the lovely blues.
    I enjoyed reading how you made it with all the interesting techniques.
    I hope you are feeling better.

    Lovely design with soft colors. The words match perfectly the flower in the head role.
    Happy and healthy weekend💗

    Sorry to read you haven't been well, dear. Hope it's temporary.

    That is an incredible journal page. You take SO much time with your pages, too. LOVE it. I love all the stencils, marks, and stamping you did. You pay so much attention to detail. Thanks for another journal entry using Sheila's theme at Art Journal Journey.

    Really nice contrast with the beautifully painted background, stencils, stamped and cut designs and details. All and Create are some of my very favorite stamps. I really enjoy looking at your page. Great composition.
