Hi Everyone! KarenLiz here.
One of my favorite spring flowers are Bleeding Hearts and on my deck I keep one large container full white Bleeding Hearts. When I saw Julie’s Graceful Flower (TCW406) it reminded me of the flowers so I thought I would use it for a journal page.
Using acrylic paints and a credit card I spread the paint all over the page. Once the paint was dry I attached a photo of my Bleeding Hearts to the page with gel medium and then traced the Graceful Flower stencil on the page.
I used acrylic paints to color in the flower and roughly shade it with a Copic marker. I found some word stickers on my table and added them to the page.
Creating journal pages are so freeing and tracing a stencil made me feel like a kid with a coloring book. I loved coloring as a kid and still do. Go ahead trace a stencil and feel like a kid again!
Thanks so much for stopping by!
In Holland we call them Broken Hearts.
Your card is beatiful with them (as well as the picture in the background).

Broken Hearts…I’ve never heard of that one. That name fits too. Thank you so much!
