Colleen's page in Janie's Exotic journal

Janie's Exotic Journal is full of lusciousness from those that worked in it before me.

I wasn't sure what to do, except that I knew I wanted to use tropical flowers.

I started with a painted & stencilled background

& lots of cut out flowers. I temporarily arranged the flowers around the edges & then thought

what will I put in the middle. I searched google for something & came across these gorgeous birds.

I now had a very large pile of cutouts to glue on.

Then I glued them all down, did some outlining & highlights & it was done.

I really like what I ended up with & hope you like it too Janie.
