It's September 1st (where oh where has summer gone?)
and time for another challenge over at
Craft Hoarders Anonymous.
Challenge 15:
All the Pretty FlowersThis challenge is for all of you flower hoarders! Maybe you hoard pre-made flowers. Maybe you hoard flower punches or dies. Maybe you hoard flower stamps. "Dig" out those flowers and use them on your project!
Here is my creation.
Another page in my art journal using collage images from Crafty Secrets
The background is book text colored with Distress Paints and Glimmer Mist.
Some of my many hoarded flowers were used in creating this.
Believe it or not I have 3 drawers filled with nothing but flowers.
Definitely a good challenge to use the hoard this month!
The quote came from another Crafty Secrets image and I cut it into pieces to fit my page.
I love the versatility of the images that they produce.
Supplies:
Collage Images: Crafty Secrets
Glimmer Mist: Canvas Corp
Distress Paints: Ranger
Flowers: Prima
