Don't lnow what went wrong with Saturday's blog post but I was sick - had eaten something which diod not agree with me and so I suffered all weekend with an upset tummy. Only found out early Monday morning that my post didn't show properly. Sorry - trying again:
This is a picture I made with what, at the time, were my favourite little characters, the Herbalums. I just adore them and thought I would do a page using them busy gardening.
I began by stamping the Tree of Courage and the Tree of Hope to frame the picture in Versafine Claire Nocturne. Next came the bench and then the three Herbalums, masking out the watering can that Ben was originally holding and making it appear he was holding the top of the bench, whilst he debated where to put the plant he was now holding in his other hand, The other two Herbalums, Baz and Bob came next followed by flowers etc at the base of the picture.
Then it was time to make a sky and ground using Elements inks Della Blue and Avocado. Finally a pastel pencil to create a more solid look to the trees and rocks and it was complete, Because it was created for Art Journal Journey we needed some wings so I put three butterflies in the sky which I fussy cut out after colouring.
I hope you like my page and join us at Art Journal Journey with your interpretation of something that has wings.
