WOYWW 841

 Happy WOYWW lovelies.  Hope you are all well. Another Wednesday so head to Sarah's for the desky-share link 

I decided to use the Dina Wakley kraft journal for an Alison Bomber themed page.


Starting with a layer of gesso leaving a bit of a border, then various green archival inks and of of Alison's new stencils
I stamped and fussy cut out several of the coneflowers from her new stamp set


coloured them with Prismacolour pencils 



arranged them and added the text stamps from the same set


wow, a finished journal page!!

my Kew buddy Kim and I survived a hot morning at Kew on Saturday by finding as much shade as possible

the giant kardoons are - giant... 
the lotus flowers in the Temperate House are a favourite at the moment



it wasn't a day for lying down for low level photography, in white trousers!  




Thanks for dropping by, I will be round to check your desks soon

I enjoyed seeing the progress on the journal page, that was great use of colour and patterns! Nice pics from Kew as well, you were brave going out in that heat, I stayed indoors!!

It feels a bit cooler here today so hoping it stays like this for a while. Well done in your trip to Kew, bet that was a scorcher. Love the new journal page and I shall think very carefully about getting out an old journal and using it with some of the new stuff, it makes sense but you know me, too easily distracted. Happy woyww, angela x10x
