T is for Butterfly Girl

Hello Everyone! I have an art journal page to share today, created on the front page of a gelli print book I made for myself last night.


I cut out a magazine image and glued it to the page, then altered it with acrylic paint, then added marks and the chit chat phrase sticker.

I'm linking my page to...


and


And finally, here's a photo of my favourite cuppa (Tetley Tea), and yummy porridge, cashews, brazils, raisins and strawberries, that Hubby and I had for breakfast today, to share with Elizabeth's Tuesday T-Day.


I hope you have better weather than us today. It's poured with rain all day, and now we have thunderstorms.

  2. What a gorgeous art journal cover. It is truly lovely and fits Jo's theme perfectly at Art Journal Journey.

    I've never had porridge, but the strawberries look SO pretty and edible. And of course, I KNEW you would be drinking tea, because you need those tea bags for your art (grin). Thanks for sharing your lovely art journal cover, your breakfast, and your tea with us for T this Tuesday, dear.

  6. super looking mixed media art! Love all the doodle, and blue and orange are so striking together. Would love your bowl of porridge:) We had rain the last three days off and on so it's wonderful to have the sun and the heat back today. Happy T day!

  9. It is a fabulous journal cover and a great idea to use a magazine page as a base. Super colours and mixed media effects.
    Your bowl of porridge looks yummy with the added strawberries.
    Happy T day wishes. Alison.
