Flower Power......Art Journal Journey


I was thrilled to see this challenge, creating flowers is very therapeutic for me!  This is a small book that I created, about flowers!
I made the book from a part of a cereal box and some mixed media paper.  It has a simple sew binding.  The pages are created by collage and "stamp" painted.  By this I mean I stamped out all of the flowers shapes with .... a tiolet paper tube.  Yup a good old tube!  Stamping the image out with cardboard is one of my favorite things to do.

Hope you like it!




Inside Cover



Each Page has a dictionary page collaged in.  I like using old dictionary pages especially when they relate to what you are doing.

Below is a page and a detail inserted.

Enjoy!

I have more flower power work to share!  Coming soon!!!
