Morning and we have new Just For Fun challenge at A Inky Mess and I made a journal page not made one for a while-I started with torn scraps of papers/the mannikin was from a Craftwork paper pad from a couple of years ago.Roses were cut from wrapping paper and a strip of dry wall tape-my fave texture stamp round the edges and Cosmic shimmer gilding polish in blossom round some edges and stamped setiment from a Chocolate Baroque set-finished with some red Izink splashed on and charcoal pencil round a couple of edges.

Lovely page - I didn't know you journaled, too. This looks fab with all the torn papers and fussy cut flowers...plus all your little additions, not to mention the ubiquitous texture stamp, lol.
ReplyDeleteSorry I haven't been visiting - have a particularly nasty dose of sciatica and both crafting and online time are very limited...:-( It'll be gone when I get up one morning and boy am I longing for that day to come, lol.
