This page features Gus sitting on the signpost for the Secret Garden but I hope you find it quite different to the previous owl one with a totally different background colour. For this page I wanted to use some bold flowers and so I chose to use dandelions. I love them when they are fluffy balls before the seeds float so effortlessly on the breeze (spreading themselves about to reseed).
Because the page was smaller in width than my journal page, remember I often make a journal page on plain cardstock and then stick it in my journal because the pages in my Lavinia Journal do not take kindly to some stamps, I did some stencilling on the sides and extended just a little of the flower stamping very slowly and carefully. I was pleased with my matching up of the dandelions, just a slight hitch upwards with the one on the left. Again I used my Elements for the background, Versafine Clair Nocturne for the stamping and Inktense pencils for the colouring.
I hope you like my Owl page for my challenge, "It Must Have Wings", at Art Journal Journey, so will you be popping over with a Journal page using Wings? I'd love to see you there.

What a darling owl. I like how you matched the dandelions, too. This is another perfect entry for you theme at AJJ.
I love your owl and the background is so beautiful and fits perfectly with the secret garden!

If Gus was welcoming me to the garden I would be there. He's adorable. And dandelions were a great choice of flowers. They are bold and people do notice them. This is another super page for your challenge. I like it. Hope your week is going well. hugs-Erika
