Hi everyone. Time for a new challenge at Try It On Tuesday.
But before I get to that, I want to thank everyone who joined in for our last "Wish You Were Here" challenge.
And huge thanks to Sandra for being a wonderful hostess also.
So our new challenge we are inviting you into the garden. The challenge is IN MY GARDEN!
I began my page with some bright green paint I had recently picked up. Then I used part of a napkin on the left. It had lots of these black and white leaves on it so I thought it would make a great background for some flowers. But it was a little plain so I sprayed a bit of dark blue ink.
I added some white leaf trim on the far left. Then I doodled some flowers on some white paper, randomly stamped a newspaper image over my doodles, and then rubbed both pink and orange ink over the page. I fussy cut the flowers and added them. I started by putting a blob of orange paint the the center, and then once it was partially dry I added a small colorful button. Then I outlined the green side, added some letter stickers and outlined those in white pen.
And voila. That is my page.
I hope you join us for our latest challenge at Try It on Tuesday.
I look forward to seeing all the gorgeous art linked up.

It's especially helpful to me that you describe your steps so clearly. I like your garden blooms :) and those sweet buttons are perfect!
Such a happy page. I love the use of the buttons for the center of the flowers. Hope you’re enjoying the weather
Lovely vibrant blooms Erika, those colours are almost tropical. So much work has gone into this page with all that fussy cutting, I love the additions of the buttons. It sure does bloom.. Thanks for sharing.
