Although I have made some flowers using the paint effect I haven't used them here.
Here is what I did - a journal page - having made the base background from the mop up of paint on my mat after making the background for the lady flower!!
I have been back and to the TV today watching the first stage of the Tour de France (apart from an hour out to the 'village' to shop)I'm afraid I cried at the end!! The Yorkshire Dales provided a brilliant backdrop for the Tour! We are off a bit closer to home to watch it go through tomorrow with our grandchildren!
Just before I go, can I just thank my followers (including new ones - Welcome!) for all your lovely supportive comments - they mean a lot to me!
Thanks for looking, Chris

This is beautiful, Chris! I love the colours you chose and the whole layout of the page - and - yes, I thought that, like me, you wouldn't want to miss having a go at this one! Congrats on winning Alison's wonderful blog candy! I was really delighted when I saw it was you! Have lots and lots of fun with the lovely stash! Julie Ann xxx
I saw that you'd won Alison's candy - well done indeed! Your journal page is fabulous! I hope you enjoy tomorrow's stage of the tour. Poor Cav though. Thanks for your blog comment.
Love your journal page, colour combo is perfect and like you enjoyed The Tour today x
The face within the flower head is beautiful.

Lovely flower lady.
WOW, Chris, this is gorgeous. I'm totally impressed. This is a gorgeous page you created and I look forward to seeing the flowers, too.
I don't think we get the Tour de France here. We might get blurbs on the news, which of course, I don't watch. Thanks for letting me know, and I'm hoping for a few photos if you go (HINT!).
Your page is stunning, Chris!!! I love it,

I was pleasantly surprised when I turned on the TV today and the Tour was on. You live in a truly lovely area. I was less interested in the bike race than I was in seeing the beautiful countryside, which they showed every so often. What got me was all the beautiful old brick and stone buildings along the way. It was almost a dream come true to see that simply majestic green countryside.
Gorgeous page....and YES the TV for once did justice to your gorgeous part of the country ;)

Lovely pages - the cool blues are so gentle and your flower lady is delicious!
