It's Spring at AJJ

 Hi everyone the weather forecasters will tell you that meteorologist's Spring starts today and here we are with Valeries's new theme at Art Journal Journey - 'Spring'

For me Spring officially starts on the 21st March(which was my late Mum's birthday) and goes through to 21st June.

It's a time of year that rivals Autumn for colour, only this time it is the new green buds on trees and the flowers that bloom at this time of year that provide the colour. I especially love the colours of blossom,  bluebells, camellias, daffodils and crocuses(some folk call them croci and either word is acceptable)Most of these are pinks, purples or yellows but I also look forward to seeing the brighter colour of tulips which flower a little later.

I used a Janet Klein stencil two ways - negative by inking and spritzing the stencil and positive by inking through it.I also used an Autour de Mwa hexagon stencil. 

I used two Janet Klein sets so that I could add more flowers.

I found the colourful letters while sorting out my room and used yellow DI through a Tim Holtz stencil to add some sunshine - which I hope we will have a lot of!!!

Please check our rules if you haven't been to AJJ for a while  - we now welcome smaller entries.

I hope you will add your own Spring pages to brighten the days at Art Journal journey! 

Thanks for looking, Chris
