Hi There! Happy New Year! Over on the Bee Crafty Facebook Group, Bev is giving us some stunning colour palettes to play around with for inspiration. Thought I would join in the fun AND make some Floral inspiration for the challenge at the same time. Here's how it came togetherI began by blending inks across a page in my 5x5 journal. I used Victorian Velvet, Milled lavender and wilted violet Distress inks.
Next I used a tag inkable to add some Saltwater Taffy Distress Oxide ink to the page.
On a separate piece of card I stamped and cut out the flower from Journaling Essentials #9, colouring it with coloured pencils.
Using the same stamp set I added more stamping in Monarch and Lilac Bloom Versafine Clair ink.
Finally I added the flower and a couple of wordy Stickers to the page with Matte Medium, along with some faux stitching with the coloured pencil and a white gel pen.
Here's the finished page again.
I used:
Wordy Stickers - I used 3B
Distress Oxide ink - I used Saltwater Taffy
Distress Inks - I used Wilted Violet, Milled Lavender and Victorian Velvet
Versafine Clair ink - I used Monarch and Lilac Blooms
Matte Medium
Coloured pencils
White gel pen
I have really enjoyed playing with some colours that I wouldn't normally use.
Thanks for looking!







This is a very pretty colour combination with the pink and purple Sally, and I love the stencilling and stamping in the background with the wonderful perfectly coloured stylished cut out flower stamped and added over the foliage, and two lovely white on black sentiment stickers to finish...a terrific journal page. x
