Happy Sunday Everyone!
I was inspired by Karin's techniques over at Birgit's Crew Member Wednesday Challenge, and created a double page spread in my 7x5" art journal.
I used Carabelle Studio stamps and stencils, and DecoArt Media Fluid Acrylics.
Linking my pages to Art Journal Journey's Landscapes of the Soul Challenge.
Also, I thought I'd share my purchases from the Knit and Stitch Show last Thursday. I had a wonderful afternoon and evening with my hooking friends Jan, Gabby, Sandra and Linda, topped off with beer and curry at Victoria station's Wetherspoons.
A closer look at the agate and glass beads I bought. I'm intending to make myself some jewellery to wear at my daughter Beth's graduation this week.
Wishing you all a wonderful week,

Just love the journal page! great haul (if restrained) from the Knit and Stitch show.
ReplyDeleteThat's another great journal page. I like how you left the leaves black and white-but the details in them makes them really cool. And the yarn looks yummy. It is definitely knitting season again. :) Hugs-Erika

I have stencil envy, Alison. This is fabulous. It's a lovely AJJ entry and I like it better than the link you provided. I like your leaves better than the hearts.
ReplyDeleteThose beads are beautiful. You are going to make jewelry and wear it THIS WEEK? Are you superwoman? I wish you tons of luck and fortitude, dear.
Amazing layers in that page spread - fabulous! Lovely looking purchases too... hope we get to see the finished jewellery design.
