It's not really raining here, I wish it would though because we could use a little moisture around here! I did have a dream that it was raining daisies a few weeks ago which prompted this page. I think I may have drifted into Alice's Wonderland or something?!(O: I have never been much of a writer but the visual stuff can get a little out there in my head. I created this page by painting a textured background in grays and whites. Then I used my hand carved lady stamp and I drew an umbrella above her head. Next I added the daisies mixed in with the raindrops over the entire page. The daisies are done at first with a stamp I found in my girls stamp set. I think I may have to hold onto that one, it's perfect for all my daisy things!! After I finished painting the colors inside the daisy stamps I decided to use some of the letters from my Funky Font Postcards and cut them out to create the wording at the top. This was a fun page and it will never let me forget that lovely dream I had a few weeks ago. Have an imaginative day everyone!!

ReplyDeleteFunny, I was just doing a dream analysis on a dream I had the other night but it wasn't as pretty as this - hadn't thought of trying to draw them...
Lee:)
Another great spread. I like to see how you are using your girl stamp and the daisy stamp--also like the use of the letters. Well done!!
ReplyDeleteLove this spread, Rebecca! The letters are a perfect fit, and I love the girl with the umbrella with all the daisies raining down! Wishing you a dreamy day with large hopes for 'real' rain real soon!!!

Rebecca; What a wonderful dream to have! I love daisies and you captured it beautifully. They have the cutest stamp sets available for girls to play with (big girls too!) It makes it nice to use a stamp and a lot less work too! She's beautiful!
ReplyDeleteis there anything happier than daisies?! you've captured their cheerfulness perfectly on these journal pages!!! keep dreamin'!! :)))
ReplyDeleteLove, Love, Love it Rebecca!!
ReplyDeleteWell, there's certainly worse things it can rain! What a lovely picture and story behind it. I always enjoy hearing what inspires the art, how it's done - satisfies my naturally curious nature :)
ReplyDeleteI would love for it to rain flowers!! This is lovely!!
ReplyDeleteOh, how lovely!!! Amazing what you've done with one tiny stamp!!! Hugs, Terri xoxo
ReplyDeleteDaisies are such a pure uncomplicated flower, and they add life to paintings and gardens.
ReplyDeleteI really like the umbrella, so pretty. In the garden they add light which I like, some white always seems nice. I always look at the kid stamps, and they have some nice letters at tims also and numbers. Even the letters and numbers tht have the magnet, I was thinking of putting an adheasvie on the front part and using that as a stamp.
I have yet to get to the dollar store for those large erasers, I would like some, I am not confident I can do a good stamp.
Ok I have time to paint, maybe I should.
someone mentioned to me yesterday that she ran out to jump in puddles as it rained for the first time in yrs & loved it. now HERE'S rain i want to run out into!!!! gorgeous!
