Happy WOYWW lovelies. Hope you are all well. Another Wednesday so head to Sarah's for the desky-share link
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
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!
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
Thanks for dropping by, I will be round to check your desks soon

Hope the cooler temperatures are better for you soon Helen. Loving the journal page! Stay safe and Happy WOYWW. Sarah
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!!
Hugs LLJ 4 xx
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
LOL! My thoughts exactly - my summer has been far too busy, far too hot and I am officially fed up. Gorgeous flowers, and lovely trousers too :D
Happy cooler WOYWW. Phew!

Well, we had a full day of rain yesterday - much needed and the garden soaked it up so thirstily. Today it is lovely and sunny but not too hot.
Love the journal page Helen but cannot believe you sat and fussy cut all those coneflowers out. Well worth it though.
Love that lotus flower, can see why it is a favourite.
Hugs, Neet xx 12
Aw, nice set from AB, stencil looks particularly useful, all made for a lovely page. Get you crafting in the heat AND while there's so much sport on! Haven't watched more than five minutes of tennis but we have managed cricket! Thanks so much Hels, for sending a birthday card, how sweet of you to remember and bother, made my day.
Oh your journal page is just my thing... I can imagine it repeated in fabric. I love cone flowers. x x Jo 🌈
