Hello to you al! We're back! The Try It On Tuesday Design Team are here to start your New Year with our theme of 'Feeling Blue'. I hope you aren't feeling too blue now that the decorations are down and of course for some it's back to work!
I think our blues made brighten your day so please take a look here!
I had some fun making this - water colour paint onto an acrylic block, spritzed and then pressed all over the centre of my page. I added some stenciling and then stamped the beautiful fantasy flower from Crafty Individuals (a Sharron Bates design). Next I added some random text around the edges of the flower and a little quote at the bottom.
As usual our theme is open for two weeks and if you need a reminder of the Rules and Guidelines - they're here.
I do hope you will join us this time at TIOT!
Wishing you all a very Happy New Year!
Thanks for looking, Chris
I'm joining in at 'Art Journal Journey too, with Mia's 'Dots' theme

ReplyDeleteWhat a fab page this is Chris, I love blue as a colour and the way you have done it with the acrylic block is lovely. The addition of the script gives it a seamless look, `I would never have thought the stamp came without the words.
ReplyDeleteHope all is well with you and yours
