Today we are back at Art Journal Journey, where our host Aimeslee, has chosen Flowers for the theme this month.
Bleubeard and I named this Early Spring Blooms. We are also joining Triple B's May challenge, where we followed their spring mood board, and Try it on Tuesday, where their theme this month is Stencil It. We also have a few detail photos.
I started this journal page by laying down three colors of water soluble crayons onto 110 lb cardstock. I was going for a soft pastel look. When dry, I added the focal image, which started life as a greeting card. I then punched the green leaves from green card stock and adhered them using a glue stick. Next, I positioned the flower stencil over the lower left, then upper right sides of the page. For those, I used a green dye ink. When finished, I felt it needed something else, so I added the dots using a black dye ink. You might be able to tell I used the same cosmetic wedge for the dots that I did for the flowers since the dots had a faint green at times depending on how much black ink I had on the wedge.Thanks ever so much for joining Bleubeard and me today. We will be at Art Journal Journey, Try it on Tuesday, and Triple B.
I will visit as I can because I am still typing with one hand, which is very slow going since Bleubeard doesn't type.

ANOTHER gorgeous creation.
Very much springlike!
I hope you feel better soon.
Beautiful flowers!
A great composition.
I think you must teach Bleubeard to type, cats do like doing nothing, though! Wonderful page, Elizabeth, I love dots and they make wonderful decorations for so many projects Have a nice weekend, hope your arm is soon better, hugs, Valerie
Lovely
Beautiful art page. I hope you recover fully very soon!

These are lovely! I love daffodils, so I love that image being the focus. And the colors are very much like pastels.
Your spring blooms are just lovely
For AJJ. And nice stenciling too. I’m glad you could join us at TIOT. And of course, spring blooms are perfect for Aimeslee’s challenge. I hope all is well. I’m playing catch up right now. 😀hugs Erika

You were going for a soft pastel look and you certainly achieved just that. I love the background you made Elizabeth and it is the perfect foil for the daffodils.
A lovely page.
