Once again it's time for the Twelve Month Challenge at The Craft Barn Blog. This month we are doing June. 

  The line this time is:
June brings tulips, lilies, roses
fills the children's hands with posies


The challenge is to include a bunch of flowers. I actually have a stamp with tulips and other flowers so I was able to use that.




I first put Gesso on the page and then used Distressed inks. They react so differently when I do this. Then I took some molding paste mixed with green paint and put it through a dylusions stencil for the background. I colored a stamp that I got from a magazine and colored it with my Spectrum Noirs alcohol markers. I used a Mason jar stamp and diecut from Jellibean. I used a dot stencil to give the illusion of the beads you put in the jar to fill it up. I combined the 2 and added the stems into the jar. 

I finally bought a new printer and now am able to print up the quotes in black! No more of my horrible hand writing!
It's been so hot and humid  here in my neck of the woods. High 80's  up to mid 90's F.  Haven't felt like doing much so glad I got this done .
Until next time!
