Welcome to another month's challenge at Creative Artiste Mixed Media where our challenges are always Anything Goes as long as you've used at least 3 different types of medium.
I rarely share my journals but I wanted to just show this double page spread this month. The tissue paper in the top left and bottom right actually came wrapped around a garden gift from a company called A Blackbird Sang and the garden accessory was wrapped in this lovely paper. It was far too good to throw away and became the inspiration for this page.
My journal is an old leather bound book hubby bought me years ago and it has handmade papers in it which can be a bit tricky when working on so I always cover the pages with lots of gesso before I begin. The background colours were made with Sam Poole Botanical Stains in Carrot Top Green and Tea Leaves from Cosmic Shimmer - I loved the way they turned out. I added some background stamping with some Tracy Evans stamps and two of her birds. The feathers are from Stampin Up. I doodled on some flower images and added some strips of Washi tape.
I'm adding this into the following challenge:
