Rouen and La Roche-Guyon, France

 

I want to reiterate I'm NOT trying to be a bad host because I don't leave you a comment on your blog.  Unfortunately, even though I read each post you link at AJJ, for some reason, I am unable to leave comments to anyone, even on my own blog.

You may know by now that Bleubeard and I are hosting Art Journal Journey (AJJ) this month.  Our theme for the entire month is Anywhere, Anytime, Any Place, with Anyone.

Today I have two places we will visit in France. 

Today we are headed back to the Normandy area and visiting the city of Rouen.  Details are below.

 

 

The image came from a travel brochure and the information about the town and cathedral from various sites on the internet.  The stars are punchinella, aka sequin waste.  Some areas stenciled better than others.  I used the same turquoise dye ink on both the stencil and around the outside of the 110 lb. cardstock.

 

The second village we will visit is La Roche-Guyon.  Details are below.

 

 

I started with one of my favorite backgrounds: security envelopes.  Even though there are subtle differences, each of these patterns is unique.  I adhered the envelopes to 110 lb. cardstock.

 

The image came from a travel brochure and the information about the village and Seine valley from various sites on the internet.  

 

Both pages are 5.5 X 8.5 inch (13.97 X 21.59 centimeter) on 110 lb. cardstock. 

 

Thank you beyond belief for visiting today, even though I am unable to leave comments on any blog including my own. Bleubeard and I would love to see you at Art Journal Journey with your own interpretation of Anywhere, Anytime, Any Place, with Anyone.
