52 Weeks Art Journal - Week 27 - Botanical

 Hello All.

This week Michelle of Raspberry Blue Sky has given us the prompt Botanical for her 52 Weeks Art Journal Challenge on Instagram.

Here's my page, which also works well for Alison's Summer Countryside theme at Art Journal Journey.


I've used some painted muslin pieces on my page, that I created using DeeDee Catron's tutorial on Willa Wanders' Collage Fodder free course. 

Below are some other pieces of fabric that I altered, using stencils, acrylic paint and a couple of my hand-carved stamps. The muslin I used had been stained with tea previously, and was just waiting to be transformed. Look out for pieces of these appearing on my bird-themed index cards ;-)


Thanks so much for dropping by today,

Hugs,

Alison xox
