Hi everyone. It's time for a new Tuesday challenge over at Try It On Tuesday. But
First I want to thank Trina for being our guest designer, and I also want to thank everyone who joined our Things With Wings challenge. There were so many fun takes on wings. ❤
This time around our challenge is In The Garden, which is perfect for many of us in June.
I made a journal page that started by using a blue ink pad over some yellow watercolor painted paper. I didn't want to go heavy with the blue because I was trying to get the sky to not only be blue, but to also have a sunny glow. Did it work? I'll let you decide.
I have this great daisy cluster stamp (a design by Sheena), and instead of stamping it along the bottom, I stamped it along the right side of my page. Then I used a yellow marker for the flower centers, a green marker for the stems, and both a white pen and a white paint pen to color in the petals. I added the little bird sticker to a daisy stem. Then I used some laser cut leaves and a flower (49 and Market) to fill in some spots around the daisies.
To finished I stamped the half suns along the left edge and stamped the quote. These stamped parts are all from a TH set.
As always, our challenge runs for the next 2 weeks, and we accept all types of artistic endeavors as long as they meet the theme. And of course, don't forget to check out the other designer's pieces because with a garden, there are so many ways you can go.
I'm excited to see all the various garden themed pieces, and I hope you're as excited to make them too.

What a beautiful page! In the garden is captured so beautifully with the sunny glow to the sky and pretty daisy flowers. It looks the perfect summers day and I love that daisy stamp 😊. Happy wishes! Hugs, Jo x
...Mother Nature watered my garden yesterday.
Now that's a very beautiful spring page. I really love the simplicity and the colours of this page.
Absolutely stunning. My garden got some much needed rain. xx
Beautiful page. It reminds me of the wildflowers along the edge of the woods. Another inside rainy day. Good for procrastinating cleaning. I'm looking forward to warm weather Wed. and Thurs.
This is a pretty one. I love the soft blues.
Lovely page
This is stunning. I like how you positioned the daisies. I really like this journal page.
Your color-decision worked! A beautiful page.
Our garden is so neglected, it´s a shame. We´re a party of 14 families and no one cares.
People come and go here, I dunno. When we moved in we went to every family and introduced ourselves.
Well, we are old. Not done anymore. Sad.
But, well to YOUR garden, have a great (Wednes-)day, hugs
That would make a beautiful summer weight fabric!
Sounds like a theme for me, although my journal is more a nature journal than an art journal. Have fun!
Such a beautiful page Erika! I think your blue background turned out perfectly! It doesn't distract from the pretty daisies at all! The daisies in my backyard are starting to fade away now. Ready for the Summer blooms to come now!
Wow Erica! This is a stunning piece. I am so impressed with it. Have a nice day.
A wonderful way to welcome the season—your journal page captures that soft, sunny garden feel beautifully. Looking forward to seeing all the creative takes on this fresh theme.
A beautiful page Erika, I love the daisy cluster images and how you designed the page.
Had a super catch up as well on your other posts.
This is just gorgeous! LOVE that background with all your pretty flowers! ((HUGS)) Helen
A beautiful page, love that daisy stamp and the blue background sets them off so well
