A page for Elizabeth's Summertime Love at AJJ before I run out of time this month...
I started this more than a week ago when I had a bit of a painting session.
The sunflower is a mix of watercolours and crayons as a resist.
I scanned my artwork and then added the words digitally, plus my bird (you've seen before) which is now digitised too and finally a photo of some of my sunflowers.
A few weeks ago I found some fun paper napkins in a shop with a bank note theme ..
I had little wooden blank folder that needed decorating and I also needed some practise using serviettes, so I thought I'd see what happened.
I filed away any rough edges and think I'm fairly pleased with the result so far :)
I added some more colour using Neocolor 11s.
I want this book to use as my go to 'reminders' book for things needing doing
i.e challenges, blogs to visit and messages that need replying to.
The book is not finished, as out of the blue I was informed that a digital scrapbooking website that I have been a member of since 2011 was closing down. So at present I am busy sorting out my digital work I have on there and all sorts before that closes soon.
The best thing last week, was the postman delivering a wonderful surprise. I was very lucky to win some of the fabulous Rubber Dance stamps designed by the lovely Donna Gray over at Inky and Quirky accompanied by a most beautiful card Donna had made. Thanks again Donna x
Unfortunately I've not had a chance to play with these yet :(
or finish some other projects I had going... like the canes from the Himaylan Honeysuckle which I will blog another time as I have started on the windchimes and had one experiment making the 'nibs' to draw with.
Bye for now
Thanks so much for visiting..
I hope you have a wonderful day.
