A last card (today at least ;-)) for today's The Art of Journalling IC challenge.
Overall this isn't particularly inspired by any one pin in particular but all the art journalling gave me a push to ink up this stamp. However, I did base my little flowers on THIS PIN. They reminded me of drier-sheet flowers, but mine are tiny little things made from scraps of salted technique background left from VSN last weekend. The largest punch is 3/4", ranging down to 3/16". I drew the stems with white and gold pens, crumpled the flowers and added gold Stickles to the centre.
The bird is from Carte Postale.
I tried stamping some birds directly on my gessoed book page but didn't like it - that ended up in the bin and I had to start over...
Old sheet music coated with gesso, stamped and coloured with pencils. Stencilled some grass into the foreground... I tore a frame, curled the edges slightly and laid it over the stamped image. Doodled a frame, and then added the flowers.
I had a little button I so wanted to use - pearly white with two little stick figures on it. I definitely want to figure out how to use it with this image because the scale is right to go with it, but it wasn't coming together on this particular card.
