Good Monday Morning Ladies,
I hope that today is the start of a great week for all of you.
I am not having the best start as as I thought on Friday I have a miserable flu bug 🤧 , my throat is so sore, its been dry and uncomfortable for a couple of days but yesterday it became so painful to swallow and the flu 'aches' really took hold, I didn't feel to bad , we went to a couple of garden centres looking for garlic bulbs to plant and some rye grass seeds to sow in the veg beds over winter, it helps to nourish the soil. We saw some lovely Christmas decorations too. By the time we got home all I wanted to do was wrap myself in my heated blanket and drink hot drinks!
Today I am sharing a journal page that I created last week.
I started by using a Stamperia stencil with texture paste....
I waited for it to dry and then added paint in oranges and browns, after it was dry I took a brayer and added black ink lightly over the letters, so that only the highest points were covered.
When this was dry I 'dry brushed' white paint over some areas of the page. To finish the background I added splatters of orange paint. The white paint made the edges of the numbers and letters really stand out.
With the background now complete I pulled out some Stamperia die cuts from the Coffee & Chocolate Collection. I finished the page with white splatters and sentiment.
I really enjoyed getting messy with the different mediums on this page.
I hope that you all have a good week,
Love & hugs,
Sandra xxx
Hi everyone
ReplyDeleteI love all of the elements on your journal page 😍
Hope you’re starting to feel better today and you managed to get some sleep last night 🥰
Have a good day everyone whatever you’re doing.
Sending hugs to you all xx
Wonderful page I am so so loving seeing journal pages on display
ReplyDeleteI hope you’re feeling better but I’m putting my “mum hat” on and telling you off for going out in the cold when you’re not feeling very well Not only are you risking making yourself feel worse - pneumonia comes to mind and you’re spreading infection Covid is on the rise here too Would be a lot different if you’d said you didn’t feel unwell Naughty naughty 🤣
Take care everyone xx
Lovely journal page, great inspiration,Thank you.xx
ReplyDeleteSorry you are feeling under the weather. Give yourself time and rest when you can. I’m sure Paul will insist you do as you are told.
I’ve had a busy day. I had intended to do some baking but OH needed help with some paperwork and that took forever!!!!!
Goodnight everyone, love Brenda xxx
Hi all, another wonderful journal page. I love that letter stencil and the paste you have used.
ReplyDeleteHad my package from AALL and create, but not had time to try them out yet, all sale buys, so feel great by saving money.
Have put the heating on full now it’s so cold.
Sandra hope you are feeling better, take care of yourself, covid is spreading again.
Goodnight all. Lilian
Hi everyone.
ReplyDeleteFabulous page. Love all the different sections. Love to see a video of this or some of your other pages that you have made. Maybe something you could do one day 😊
Hope you are feeling better soon .
I have had a good start of the day when IH took me to Dobbies for the free coffee (had to pay £0.35 each for a big mug ) well worth it. Back home I did some cleaning in the craft room, I don't know about you but it gets dusty quickly from the cards or is it just me 🤔
After all my parents have gone through lately I thought it would be enough but no. Dad is getting his protheses soon and then some toes on his other foot is starting to go bad 😞.
Sorry to offload my worries to you all but I know you understand and I hope you don't mind.....
Sending warm hugs to you all. Maria xx
