Hi everyone, I have another page for Alison's 'Come Fly With Me' theme at Art Journal Journey.
We had a lovely day out at Styal Mill gardens yesterday, the weather was kind to us and we took a packed lunch. The gardens looked great and the birds were perched on branches enjoying the sun too!
I used two stencils overlaid to make the background - the mesh and a script one and used Faded Denim Distress Ink. I stamped one of my favourite birds from Crafty Individuals and used Derwent Inktense pencils to colour it in and then used my water brush to blend.
The quote is a Paper Artsy one by Lin Brown.
Here are some photos of Styal
The scent of this pink Sweet pea is wonderful
There was a bird of prey flying around but couldn't get a shot as it disappeared over the trees
Thanks for looking, Chris

Have a lovely weekend.

I love your little art bird CHris. He really stands out on your delicate background. And Stayl looks beautiful. Those log critters are great, and dahlias are blooming already. Here they won't bloom until a little longer. Have a great weekend. hugs-Erika
Such a perfect beautiful summer's day! Thank you. Aloha!
So pretty this journal page and wonderful photos!
Happy Weekend, hug Elke
I love how you treated that background of your journal page and that bird is so well colored, too. This is absolutely perfect for Alison's theme at AJJ.
Beautiful photos of Styal. LOVE that butterfly in the firs photo. Those tree roots look menacing. Cute wooden sculpture of the mice. Thanks for sharing these lovely gardens, Chris.
Love your page Chris, such delicate colours and a beautiful bird
