Flower Girl

 

It's hotter than hot here.  Yesterday (Saturday), the last time I checked, it was over 90 F (32.22 C) and we still hadn't reached the hottest part of the day.  We went from winter to summer and skipped spring altogether.  Thankfully I have AC, or I (and my electronics) would be melted.

Today I'm once again at Art Journal Journey (AJJ) with a journal page for my friend Chris, this month's host.  She can be found at PearShapedCrafting. Her theme is Spring Forward

It's obvious this is called "Flower Girl."  Details are below.
 





I began by fussy cutting the woman, a magazine image from my stash.  I adhered her slightly off center to a 5.5 X 8 inch (13.97 X 20.32 centimeter) sheet of 110 lb. cardstock.  I added the washi tape.  The tape on the right has three layers, the tape on the left, only one. Above the left washi tape, I wrote the words Flower Girl in black ink.  I then added flowers to her head and both shoulders.  I also adhered a butterfly with flowers.  Finally, I placed a stem of spring flowers in her mouth.  All flowers were see-through stickers I found in my stash.

Thank you beyond belief for visiting today. Bleubeard and I would be thrilled to see you at Art Journal Journey with your own interpretation of Spring Forward
