Butterfly Wings...

Hello everyone!

Today I'm sharing my latest Art Journal page and I wanted to incorporate some of my 'Favorite Things' which is the current theme over at Art Journal Journey. A few of my favorite things are... butterflies, creating bright-sparkly backgrounds and coloring... I absolutely love to color especially with my alcohol markers! :) 
 These cute butterflies are from Jess Volinski's 'Color Animals' coloring book :) I really like all of the images in the coloring book but the pages are very thin so I printed them out on a thicker piece of paper/cardstock. They were colored with Copics, cut out and the sentiment/quote is computer generated. For the background I used Lindy's Magicals, American Craft stencils, Carved Pumpkin DOI, a script stamp and Viva Glitter Paste. 

 Thanks so much for stopping by and for the comments you leave!

Hi Tammy! Your mixed media layering is so inspirational for me! I always blow up the photos so that I can see all of the wonderful details you incorporate into each piece! I love the gold glitter dots on this one - it looks like the butterflies are flying through bits of sunshine! Beautiful! Take care and stay safe!
Hugs - Rachelle : )

My sincere apologies for taking so long to visit. Sometimes life gets in the way of computer time. I'm so far behind, I may never catch up, but I'm trying.

I absolutely LOVE your journal page, Tammy. Those butterflies are So well colored and I like how you reinforced them, too. The background is lovely and has lots of movement, which carries over to the sentiment, too. Thank you so much for sharing this with us using Erika's theme at Art Journal Journey.
