Here comes April

A few days late but better late than never. I am really happy with the background colours on this page although now I have put the journal squares on it covers most of it. I used Dylusions paint Mustard and Pink, sprayed with Sky Blue Pearl mica spray from Art From The Heart. I also sprayed in white which is a Crafty Notions spray. I painted with a gold dabber through a couple of stencils, did lots of circles in orange and white. My images are from Octopode Factory coloured with Copic Markers. The rain drops are from a Claudine Helmuth stamp. The days of the week I wrote on old music sheet and April is stamped on an old book page. I had better get on with May now seeing as time is flying by.

  3. Hi Pat, April's pages are looking fabulous, love the paper you've used for the daily squares, they work really well. Love the days of the week too. I started glueing my squares on before realising I'd started to0 high (not where they are now, but the 2nd row down) so when I got to the last row I decided I'd rather have more space at the bottom than the top, so put the last ones at the very top IYKWIM!
