Art Journaling Playtime

 Lori and I explored what is possible

with......

~ color stamp pads ~ bags of interesting words

 ~ japanese papers ~

gold ~ silver

guache paints ~ brushes

calligraphy markers

PLUS...plus..

A great array of papers to play with. 

...it was challenging to stop and store them away

 I found some awesome stamps and ink pads..

 at the Paper Place on Queen St West..

Creating around the table with tea.

'Mellifluous ~ Goddess ~ Flower'...

My interesting words that I pulled from Lori's Magic bag of words.

Here's the definition of MELLIFLUOUS

1

: having a smooth rich flow <a mellifluous voice>

2

: filled with something (as honey) that sweetens

              

Lori's words: 'Plenty ~ Playful ~ Love'
