Since I'm confined to the house, I've been doing circuits of my garden to keep my fitness up. I usually plug in my head-phones and listen to an album or a podcast. My son Gordon and his friend Joe have started weekly podcasts, called Liminal Podcast, and you can find them here if you're interested. I find them quite amusing, and it's a comfort to hear my lovely son's voice of course.
Today I have another art journal page for Mia's Flowers theme at Art Journal Journey.
The base is a gel print, and the flowers and circles were cut from a doodled, painty under-paper and a scrap of black card. I had a lot of fun doing those doodles.
I hand-wrote a few words of an old song that my Nan used to sing to us, and finished with some white ink splatters.
Thanks for dropping by my blog,
Alison xox
love it!
ReplyDeleteI love this one, as that song has special memories for me. I got married to my first husband when I was 18, we definitely couldn't afford a carriage, and rode to the church literally on a bicycle made for two, and our friends from the choir sung the song for us. Crazy but nice! Hugs, Valerie
ReplyDeleteI do like this …
ReplyDeleteAll the best Jan

"I'm all crazy just for the love of you" and so on it goes. Yes, I remember learning that song from my old aunt.

Its a fabulous page and a super daisy flower. The words had the memories flowing back for me, they made me grin at the old songs still being remembered today.

I'll be singing that song all day now, Alison! Not that I mind. Hearing it will now forever remind me of your gorgeous journal page. What fun to have your choice of doodles. It's all beautiful and so well put together, too. Thanks for joining us again at Art Journal Journey using Mia's theme.
