Our dreary day of April showers inspired me to create something full of color. At least April showers bring on the green grass, tree buds and flowers.
I used tissue paper from an Easter gift bag to start my background. I added spots of color with punchinella as a stencil. Scraps and bits made up the rest of the page. 
It was great to work in a journal again. I’ve found that I have to mix things up a bit to keep the creativity flowing. I almost ended up at the sewing machine instead of doing the journal page. I guess I have to be thankful for laundry today…got me down to my artspace.

I know what you mean – although sewing is quite a creative endeavor too :)
I stopped by earlier, but didn’t have time to log in to your blog, so finished my blog post, then promptly fell asleep. Bleubeard and I are very grateful for the beautiful gifts you bestowed on us. Thank you again. YES, I love everything, including the candy! In case you are wondering, the cup candle went in the dining room, and the canvas went to my main floor bath. Perfect colors, perfect styles!!
I liked the layering you achieved in this spread and the texture, too. The use of staples is always a fun addition, I think.
