Exotic!! by Pam.

I spent some time pondering whatever I could contribute to Janie's Exotic Art Journal.  I had no idea and time was ticking so I just began and played around.  My thought turned to exotic dancers, to flashy birds, wonderful flowers, too many thoughts really.

So I just began a background.  I stuck down tissue paper, and then used some Lindy's Stamp Gang sprays in greens and browns.

Then I thought about leaves.  I had some painted papers that resulted from cleaning off my brayer when gelli printing so I stencilled over them with paint and cut out some leaves I searched through my paper napkins for exotics and found some lovely flowers and butterflies.  I then had a little tryout after I did some stamping with some home made stamps.

Janie's journal is an A4 landscape layout and I found it difficult to fit into my limited work space.  After pasting all my elements down.  I outlined them and then stencilled some dots in the red paint to tone in with the rest.

Here are some close ups from around the spread.  I hope it fulfills Janie's requirements.
