Flower Pages

Found some easy journalling to where I more or less just stick paper on my journal pages to create backgrounds.  This worked just fine for Art Journal Journey theme this month, chosen by Alison, which is Geometric Shapes.  Luckily I had a page in a new journal which had been painted in blue and lime green and I just put a stencil on one edge making some geometric shapes with some white paint and a piece of sponge.

I then outlined the shapes with a black pen that went down the right hand side but left the diamond shapes, top and bottom, as they were.  Next I chose some papers which I thought would tone in although I realised that the background colour was a bit too bright for what was in my "bit envelope".  

I started off with a large rectangle in a muted green and then used a square of cream and cut it in in two because Lorraine and I have "triangle" in our list for our Junk Journal (another page done).  The reverse of the cream paper was a nice green shade and so I cut a circle from it and then a circular letter "P" for Poppy.  The final thing was to stamp a Poppy across the two triangles.

So there it is, my Geometric rendition for Art Journal Journey.  Now could I make another one before the challenge closes?
