I started this page ages ago..believe or not it started off pale green after adding torn pieces of old book pages..and then I kinda got carried away. It has layers of Guacamole,butternut,autumn fire and a teensy bit of zesty zing.
I stamped and stenciled in between the layers with olive green archival and then stenciled the tree using Grunge paste I had coloured with stone fresco. I then painted over the trees with french roast went around the edges with a white pen and stamped some Jofy grassy things from her no10 plate in olive archival..and edged the pages in the same colour.
Lastly I stamped the quote by Ralph Waldo Emmerson on strips of card and stuck them on the page. I couldn't get a good piccie of this page..the photo doesn't show the colours as they really are..
thanks for stopping by....

That's great Lin! I love the quote. x
ReplyDeleteI have problems taking pictures of my journal too, never gets the colour quite right! This however, is absolutely beautiful, and I love the quote, and the trees too.
ReplyDeleteI really did hand back the apron, but under duress! Ha ha. Sam was right, I really only had 5 tags not 6, so none were missing, I just can't count, even though I was a data analyst. Ilove the background and the stamping on your journal page. They are gorgeous colours too. Michelle x
