Art Journal Pages

I took away the dragonfly, he'll probably look better somewhere else anyway.  I added some journaling using crimson india ink and love the bird stamp (tried out these amazing liquid scrap-dots

I really enjoyed creating this page, I am just not sure about that the dragonfly.  This one is not finished yet, I am just not sure what it needs yet.

This is my version of Donna Downey's inspiration Wednesday video this week.  I used the cricut cartridge "a walk in my garden"  but when I went to cut another flower the cartridge had an error..go figure.  The first time I used it too.  I love how the background was layered and how I made my own version of an inclusion for the word Journey.  This was a fun project.

This page was one of the first pages in my art journal, I had to try out my watercolour crayons that I used in the background.  I used Claudine's stamp sets which I love.  The journaling was random words of our time spent in Florida this past winter.  I coloured the loops in my writing with clear sakura glitter pen.

This is the first page of my art journal.  I have been so inspired by Donna Downey.

National Scrapbooking Day

We're in Orleans

After another beautiful winter in Ormond Beach Florida we made the long trek home in a new motorhome and I am very much enjoying being back in my home.  Spending 6 months in a small space it feels good to stretch out and enjoy my large studio/craft area.
I have also been to a mega crop at St Mary's home in Ottawa on May 7th for National Scrapbooking day.  I was so excited as I got to see my best friend again.  I really had the best time and was even able to finish a layout and make an anniversary card for my husband George of 35 years (May 8th).  Mothers Day was leisurely, Friday I received some beautiful flowers from Sean and Sarah.  They stopped by with a beautiful Hallmark card...Queen of the Road.  Later George and I went to Baton Rouge to celebrate our Anniversary.  I will post some pictures here later. This Friday is my 58th Birthday and I'm excited to be going to Milestones.
