Hi everyone, we are inviting you to 'Use A Stencil Or Two' at Try It On Tuesday. There are some beautiful examples from the Design Team so I hope you will go and take a look.
I love stencils and probably have far too many, however my choices were easy this time.
The flower is a stamped and fussy cut one by Brigit Koopsen for Carabelle Studio and the quote is by Alison Bomber (of Words and Pictures blog) for Paper Artsy
This page is also for Sheila's 'A Single Flower' at Art Journal Journey
I am watching for flowers blooming here in our communal gardens and hoping for a little walk in another of my favourite gardens soon.
As usual the TIOT challenge runs for two weeks - I hope you can join us in this challenge - the stamping/image is up to you as long as you use your stencils.
Thanks for looking, Chrisx
This is such a beautiful page, lovely colours.
ReplyDeleteHave a nice week.
Beautiful art journal spread Chris! LOVE those stencils and your sentiment is beautiful! Have a super week ! ((HUGS)) Helen
ReplyDeleteWonderful piece, sorry I couldn't join in this time. Perhaps I can make something for next week. Can't do much just now, so this is a generic comment I'm sending to all teamies. Have a great week, hugs, Valerie
ReplyDeleteNice stencil Chris. And I like that flower too. Your page works perfect for TIOT and AJJ. The quote is amazing I didn't know how many wonderful one flower quotes there were to pick from. Hope you're feeling better. Hugs-Erika
ReplyDeleteOh Wow Chris, I love the textures in your journal page and stencils are so fun to use-I may join in on this challenge Hope you are feeling better hugs Kathy
ReplyDeleteBeautiful page! The softness of the colours and textures of the stencilled background is amazing and the flower and quote are perfect 😀. It's lovely to see the spring flowers and foliage in the garden too! Thanks for the inspiration and wishing you a lovely week! Hugs, Jo x
ReplyDeleteA beautiful page Chris! I love flower, and the stencilled background.
ReplyDeleteI love seeing our garden coming to life with daffodils and crocuses, hope you enjoy your walk in the gardens.

A lovely page Chris, love the soft shades in the background, they really make your flower pop. The quote is perfect.
ReplyDeleteLove the page in the previous post too.

It looks so romantic, so delicate and the design is beautiful with the background and quote!
ReplyDeleteI wish you a good day, hug Elke
Super texture to your background, works beautifully with your soft colours.

I can almost feel the texture through my computer screen. It's beautiful. The flower is adorable. It's perfect for Sheila's theme at Art Journal Journey, too.
ReplyDeleteLove that texture paste! You remind me to find my jar...somewhere--LOL! Have a wonderful day. :)
ReplyDeleteA beautiful page Chris. The stencils look great and so does the single flower. Perfect inspiration for both challenge themes.
ReplyDeleteStay safe.

Hi Chris. Your turn now to show me some Spring, lol. I've had a flare up with my health last few days but finally able to focus enough to come have a catch up and enjoy your art and photos. I love how you have inked and stenciled and stamped this one. Inspiring colours too. Hope your weekend goes well, xoxo
ReplyDeleteI think I've got two commercial stencils which I've never used so I am intrigued when I come across an art page like yours. The blue squares stencilling is especially beautiful in these soft colours. The single flower looks just right, nothing else to distract us from the Single Flower, the star of the page. Thanks very much Chris for this page for our theme at AJJ.
ReplyDeleteLovely texture upon your stenciled background Chris, another flower that sits so well against it's backdrop. Your chosen words are so lovely. Beautiful work. Take care Hugs Tracey xx
ReplyDeleteP.S I hope you are feeling better now?? x
Pretty page😺🐱👏👏💐 congrats
ReplyDeleteHugs from Chile 😊
Great texture and beautiful flower! This is my third favorite of all your single flower posts! Hugz
