My Photo and My Page Don't really Go Together But...

     Hi everyone. Happy middle of the week. Today I have a short post as I'll be joining Matilde and her  Houses and Buildings challenge at Art Journal Journey.


   The photo of the little girl and her toys was in my stash. While cleaning I came across a sheet of images. On that sheet I noticed the house in the background of this image right away. I decided to make it the centerpiece of my page and to create a background for the lawn which stretches out in front of the house. 

   To make that background I used yellow paint and some green and blue watercolor splatter. I then added some flowered cloth tape. I also added a bit of honeycomb because somewhere in the yard I'm guessing there would be some bumblebees. I added the photo and put a frame around it, and then I added a little bumblebee chipboard image. All the bits and pieces on my page (other than the image) are from 49 and Market. The quote comes from an older French made stamp set by Aladine.

   As I said, I'm keeping today's post short. Hope you have a wonderful mid-week. And thanks for stopping by my blog.
