| A Garden is Heaven on earth - journal page |
I've been noodling around, painting in my journal (I MADE time for once - I was desperately in need of some hands-on art time to clear the cobwebs...) and this is the result.
 |
| Closeup showing the lace, the ric-rac braid, punched paper border - and lots of paint. |
 |
| Closeup showing paper flowers with glitter, my handpainted flowers all over the place. I drew back into the piece with a black brush pen to give a strong outline, then overpainted the black lines with clear water to smudge it all, to add shadow. |
Hope you like it! I finished the lettering (painting the chipboard etc) Sunday night with half an eye on the TV. And before you ask, yes, the lace is real.
Love this, Susie,

ReplyDeleteHi Susie, I just found your blog through a mutual follower. I love, love, love it, just as she said I would. Your newest follower, Connie :)
ReplyDeleteThank you everyone! Yes, it was a total pleasure to be messing around with some paint. Thanks so much for commenting.
ReplyDeleteAbsolutely beautiful! I was in desperate need of clearing the cobwebs too. ;) Amazing how it works.
ReplyDeleteAlways fun stopping by, Susie.
Much love,

Wow, this is really pretty! But I like the one you made for Pink Saturday better. Can't believe you made those, I thought it was store bought.
