Hi everyone. It's Tuesday and time for another new challenge at Try It On Tuesday.
But first I want to thank Pauline for being our Keep It Simple Guest Designer and I also want to say thank you to everyone who joined our last challenge. I enjoyed seeing everyone's "simple" but definitely not boring art work.
Our new challenge for the next 2 weeks is Things with Wings.
I made a journal page which for some reason I had a hard time getting a good view of. You'll have to excuse the view on the TIOT page. Here is the whole page that gives you a better idea of my page.
I used my Dina Wakely ledger journal and some green glaze paint to start. I layered many images, some from 49 and Market and some from Art by Marlene. Then I stamped the quotes with a couple of old River City Rubber stamps, and then I finished by splattering some white paint. I like a nice splatter effect and, I also like how it pulls the page together.
Our challenge at Try It on Tuesday runs for the next 2 weeks. I hope you're thinking wings of some sort. I am also linking up this page to Art Journal Journey whose art journaling challenge runs through the end of this week and which is also all about Wings.
Be sure to check out the design teams art too because there are some lovely wings to inspire you. Thanks for stopping by, and I'd love to see your wings at Try It On Tuesday.

this challenge plays nicely into Neet's theme at AJJ. I Love the background and the many layers to your page. Thanks for this great entry at AJJ.
...I don't know about you, but I think days have wings.
Very beautiful! What's the name of that blue bloom?
Beautiful page ,I love your colours and all the lovely layers
What a lovely page this is. I do like the effect of the green glaze and it sits perfectly with the other colours you have chosen to use. A gorgeous butterfly and beautiful florals. The blossoms make perfect frames top and bottom and, as you say, the spatters bring it all together.
Thanks for joining me again at AJJ.
Hugs, Neet xx
Such a beautiful page! Loving your composition, the journal script showing through the colours look fabulous and the flowers and butterflies look so pretty against the green glaze paint background - amazing 😊. I hope you're having a great week and sending you happy wishes! Hugs, Jo x
Lovely page -Christine cmlk79.blogspot.com
A beautiful page and sentiment Erika, its a lovely background as well.
I've enjoyed a good catch up this morning and was taken with the following post about the bees and how you had them in the greenhouse. I think I would run if I found to many in my green house never mind the amount you put there for their safety.
A very nice looking page.
All the best Jan
Great page, lovely flowers and butterflies. A beautiful page. Hugs Wendy
Your pretty page screams Spring, love the blue flower and butterfly and the pink floral clusters. A good paint splatter is so fun and a bit risky, too. xoxo
Absolutely gorgeous page with the pretty images! I love how you've used the ledger design for the background!
It's a beautiful page Erika, the green painted background works so well with the vibrant pink flowers. Love the blues of the butterflies and floral image tying it all together.
