Squares

 Hi Everyone. Here's a final page for Valerie's Anything Goes theme at Art Journal Journey.

Teabag texture and I created the squares with paint and the bottom of the Ecoline ink jar. I finished with some book text on a piece of corrugated card and a few splashes of the gold ink.

Have a great weekend,

Alison

Orange Feather

 Hello All.

Here's another junk journal page for Valerie's Anything Goes theme at Art Journal Journey.

The feather is one of my hand-carved stamps, painted with watercolour. I used a feather to drag paint on the background.

Thanks for visiting,

365 Somethings - 80-86

 Hello Friends.

Before I share my Somethings, I must let you know that unfortunately I have had to add comment moderation again. This is due to a sudden high number of spam comments I have received lately. I shall publish your comments as soon as I have received and spotted notification of them.

Now, here are my mini collages for this last week, for Daisy Yellow Art's 365 Somethings challenge. I've made a couple of sets, a set of 3 and a set of 4, as you will probably spot. I must say, I really enjoyed working in sets like this.

Thanks so much for dropping by and leaving your lovely comments.

AJJ - Anything Goes

 Hello friends.

I have another page from my junk journal to share for Valerie's Anything Goes theme at Art Journal Journey.

I drew the flower and made the background marks with my non-dominant hand, a fun practise. The leaf shapes are made with one of my hand-carved stamps.

I also have the two Mother's Day cards I made for my Mum and Mother-in-Law to show you.

365 Somethings - 66-72

 Hello all.

It's been another stressful week, another gastroscopy last week. Thankfully all is healing well, but I'll need some injection therapy in a few weeks time.

I was due to have a bone marrow biopsy tomorrow, but due to an infection, I've had to postpone it. It had already been postponed once because of junior hospital doctors striking.

On a good note, I had a lovely Mother's Day weekend, with my mum and dad, my mother-in-law, and our daughter. Hubby cooked a couple of delicious lunches, and we managed a video chat with our son too.

Anyway, today I have some more mini collages to share for Daisy Yellow Art's 365 Somethings challenge.

Thanks for visiting today.

Here is my finished page, and a couple of close-ups.

And here are some process shots.

I'm linking my spread to Valerie's Anything Goes theme at Art Journal Journey.
