Hi everyone! It's July 1st and time for new challenges . . .
The July Main Challenge at More Than Words opened today:
More Than Words is a monthly art journal challenge site that contains a word inspiration and a creative challenge.
Here is July's Main Challenge:
The word inspiration for July is WONDERFUL and the creative challenge is WATERCOLOR.
Here is my finished art journal page:
I am LOVING Lisa Oxley's beautiful pink canvas paper from ArtStacks! I used it as my art journal page background and added a WATERCOLORED sun, clouds, a tree, and a mom holding her baby. My sentiment is one of my favorites from the song "What a WONDERFUL World" that was sung by Louis Armstrong.
I hope that you get a chance to check out the Main Challenge at More Than Words his month.
I am also submitting my page to Art Journal Journey, Monthly:
The theme for July is "Doors and/or Arches." Their host is the talented Wendy from wendyscraftjournal. My page contains an arch in the form of a rainbow!! It's in the right upper corner.
Thank you, AJJ and Wendy for hosting this amazing challenge.
And thank YOU for stopping by my blog today. Happy July!
What a wonderful way to show an arch, brilliant idea. A gorgeous colourful page with a lovely sentiment, thank you for sharing with us on Art Journal Journey for my theme.
ReplyDeleteA beautiful scene and the arch of the rainbow is a great take on Wendy's new theme over at Art Journal Journey. Thank you for sharing this with us there.

I love this page Sharon. And I love that arch you used. It is so full of hope. It's been drizzly here this morning and a rainbow would be lovely to see. I feel bad I never made it over to More Than Words last month. I wanted to participate in that challenge but I truly didn't get more than maybe 3 or 4 hours of art time all month between trying to get back into my newly remodeled art space, garden work, etc. I am glad you joined us at AJJ for Wendy's challenge though. Thank you. Have a wonderful JUly 4 weekend and start to the new month. Hugs-Erika

You always come up with a clever art journal entry, but for this one, you really thought outside the box. The page is beautiful and the mother and child make it special. The words from the song exemplify the beauty of it all. And finally, that rainbow is genius as an arch. Thanks for sharing this spread with us at Art Journal Journey using Wendy's theme.
