New TIOT theme

 Hi everyone, We have a new theme at Try It On Tuesday and it's one I think is going to be popular with a lot of you. 'Animals - real or imaginary' is our new theme. The Design Team have some fun examples to share with you.

I chose a stamp that I really love, even though I don't use it often.


I used Neocolourll watercolour crayons, along with a wide waterbrush, to make a background. I left the middle free to do my stamping then filled in the gaps afterwards.

I coloured in the image with watercolour pencils and a fine brush.     I love this little family with the busy Mum feeding her young.

The sentiment was taken from a sticker set by The Works.

To finish it off I added a brown watercolour border.

I hope you will join us this time at TIOT with your favourite 'Animals'

You have two weeks until the theme changes                           The Rules and Guidelines are here.

Thanks for looking, Chris

If I'm not too late I would like to join Mia for her 'Make Your Own Backgrounds' theme at Art Journal Journey.

These mice are so cute Chris. It's a real lovely page, and I like how you did your background too. Glad you squeeze it in for Mia's AJJ challenge too. Hope all is well with you. hugs-Erika

It seems everyone loves the House Mouse stamps. These mice are adorable and beautifully colored. You are definitely not too late to join Mia and her background theme at AJJ. Thanks for sharing.

Very cute page. So much depth and texture in the background.
