Hi you all!
These journal pages have been made mostly from some stamping try-outs while I was making my CAS cards last week. I wanted to see which combinations looked best....I just coloured in the irises and added a few square quotes and some simple line drawing to try to pull it all together. I am linking to Paper Saturdays and AJJ - Squares.
The stamps used are from Laurentz and Morgen, except for the circle which is from Hein design.
And this lovely orange moon lit up the sky 2 nights ago.
Have a great weekend, take care, and thanks a lot for coming by.
Wonderful pages Valerie. The colours and images all go so well together.
ReplyDeleteA fabulous picture of the moon-I have never seen one so orange before.
Have a lovely weekend
Hugs Chrissie x
Looks really effective Valerie the combination of shapes and images :) the photo looks more like a painting love it :)

ReplyDeletePhew! Got here at last Valerie and glad I did as the journal pages are so beautiful and just love the squares and irises.
ReplyDeleteGreat atmospheric photo too.
Have a great weekend.
Hugs, Fliss xx
Really enjoying your experiments with the squares, and I don't really like squares - don't use them - however somehow you have made them so beautiful. LOVE the Iris - very nice - colour is perfect. Beautiful pages, Valerie. hugs, Donna

Beautiful work, Valerie, the dragonflies and flowers look as if they are just floating lightly on the page. I wonder if you are going to make more in CAS style. I love everything you do, your work has so much life. That's a great photo of the orange moon.
ReplyDeleteI am not sure if I want to do more CAS stuff. Occasionally, yes, but not regularly!
DeleteYes, it's good to try out other styles, but we have our own artistic voice.
ReplyDeleteLove your "try-out" pages! The Irises are stunning & I am wondering if that awesome orange moon inspired the orange circles?!
ReplyDeleteThat could be! I love looking at the moon, and when it has such a great colour, I can't stop!
DeleteBeautiful moon pictures!! I like the pages too, I'm loving those squares.
ReplyDeleteIngenious work on the pages! Beautiful moon, the upcoming harvest moon will be something to watch for.
ReplyDeleteExcellent orange moon, exquisite shapes and designs! I love the pictures!
ReplyDeleteOkay the jig is up. You are a famed artist who comes to Blogland to play. I don't know what you were trying out for but I think you made it!! I wish you would do some tutorials on basic design - better yet write a book! Your journal pages are wonderful and a big BRAVO to the moon!!

Heck! You've seen through my disguise....

ReplyDeleteBeautiful pages! Love those flowers and the dragonflies.
ReplyDeleteI saw an orange moon a while back, it only lastred for about 15' or so, but it's a fabulous sight.
