Thinking Of You Art Journal Page

 Hello there,

Cindy here to present another Flower theme inspiration.  Today I've created an art journal page featuring Altenew Craft-A-Flower Pansies Layering Die Set.

I did some ink blending on the background paper (mix media paper already slightly colored).  I stamped some text randomly, and applied volume paste thru stencil in selected areas.  After everything is nice and dried, I adhered the watercolored pansies onto the page.  To truly make this my own, I hand wrote "thinking of", the meaning of the Pansies in Chinese.

Altenew is our sponsor this April, and they are giving away a $50 gift card to our challenge winner (randomly selected from all the eligible entries).  Our challenge theme this month is: Flowers.

Remember to use die cut and/or dry embossing with Flowers for our April challenge.  I look forward to seeing your creations.

For further details and full supply list, visit my blog: Escape To Stamping.

That's it for now.  Have a great day!

I used Sunny Studio - Miss Moo stamp and die set. 

I used a free clipart barn onto some white card and then used a mini slimline die to cut it out.  I masked it off and added some Altenew ink blending for the background.  I stamped and die cut two cows and used some Spectrum Noir Aqua pens to add colour.  I stamped, coloured and die cut the little flowers too.  Just love the sentiment from this little set.   It's the cutest mini stamp and die set, so a super good price point. 

Do come and join us with your Critters... just remember to use your die cut machine for something on your card.
