A Single Flower

Just nipping in with another Journal Page for Art Journal Journey and Sheila's lovely challenge which finishes tomorrow - "A Single Flower".   I usually just post a journal page on a Thursday when I do my Dylusion Journal page but I wanted to do one a little bit different this time and so here it is - my Single Flower for Sheila:

I had a brayered page in my square journal and so I thought I would use one of my new Aall & Create stamps by Tracy Evans.  This is one of my favourite stamps from the new collection and I simply stamped it in black and then embossed it with clear embossing powder.  The butterfly was coloured with a blue Inktense pencil and then I stamped and cut another one out and attached it with the body only so that the wings stood up a little.

I coloured the hibiscus with Inktense pencils also and then cut it out and put that to one side of the circle stamps, painting two of the circles in a green shade.  Finally I added the word "Hibiscus" at the base of the page.

I really enjoyed making this page and wish there was more time to do more pages of single flowers.
