Last week I received 3 Prima Colour Bloom sprays that I bought following my weekend away at Lin Brown's, when I fell in love with these gorgeous colours!
I have Cobalt, Glistening Waves and Sunshine. I spritzed the page with them one at a time.
Took out my Tim Holtz stencil that I've never used, and mixed Cheesecake and Chalk Fresco paints, stencilled across the bottom of each page.
The stars are a Crafters Workshop stencil, I used Peacoat (opaque) Fresco.
The little stamps are by Technique Tuesday and I hand wrote my quote
"Don't wish it were easier, wish you were better" (Jim Rohn)
half on each page, with a medium nibbed Pitt pen.
The shimmer in the sprays is a) hard to photograph but b) beautiful!!

Oooh fab, and you used your new sprays and your new TT stamps. Love those stars xxx
Unusual combo of colours that work really well Helen. Getting brave with your own writing which looks good. X
Really nice pages Helen! It's nice to use new stash for the first time :-) Really liking those stars and am jealous of your new prima sprays...really don't need another colouring medium tho!!! But you've managed to catch the shimmer in the photos so well done! Claire x
Nice page, I love the stars.
Great pages Helen and I love the quote.

I love stars - great pages!
Lovely pages!! New Prima new sprays and Stars stencil are fab. I love the pages xx
Wonderful pages and really great colours!! The effects look fantastic! I can just see I am going to have to invest into some of these sprays too....
Excellent colours and I love that sketchy star stencil. The quote is very good :o)
The stars have aligned to create this stunning page. It is beautiful.
I found the perfect quote for this challenge, but didn't use it because I didn't have any way to show sunlight. That stencil you used would have been perfect. It helps to own lots of tools and toys (grin).
Fantastic quote Helen, a tad easier than the last challenge and two lovely journal pages. Great handwriting and use of your stencils. The Prima Blooms look amazing but am tempted by the Lindy's Stamp Gang colours too :-) xxx
Never heard of those sprays - I think I live in a closet at times LOL. Great pages, love the stars and congrats on the handwriting - takes courage but it's great when you step out.
Hugs, Neet xx
I've been wondering about the Prima sprays so it's great to see them in action. Sounds like you're enjoying playing with them, and I certainly love these starry pages! Great quote too.

Love the quote and the colour scheme. Normally I wait to comment until after I've done my page but I am away at present and have picked my quote for when I get back.
lOVE the shimmer!
Great page Helen, the stars look fabulous!
Fabulous pages! Love the shimmer and those fab stars! Brilliant quote! Chrisx
Wow wow absolutely awesome stunning journal pages. I really love the shimmer, I have just got the bloom sprays but not used them yet, but you definitely have inspired me to get them out. Really love the stencil you used and the quote is fantastic. Kezzy :-) xxx
Great page. I like the bloom sprays as well.
Beautiful pages - love the colours and the stars!
I've got a couple of those Prima sprays, and they are fabulous.
Great page.
Reading all the comments above, you've created a stir with those sprays... well me too I'd love to test them out. Great combination of stencils, lovely colours and good choice of quote on your page.
I think you got all our attention with those awesome sprays--even the names sound appealing! I love this quote and your pages are lovely!
Great pages Helen...and I love the quote :) xx
