Rejoice and Blossom with Joy Clair- Art Journal page

Here is my first project ( an art journal page) with Joy Clair's first release of 2019! I'm so excited to be a part of the team for another term and I just love this set, Blossom! The sentiments are great and I was probably just a little too excited about finally having a set with Cacti in my stash... finally! ;-) You can see all the stamps here.

I started by added color to the page to create my scene. 

I then stamped the cacti on a peice of green cork paper I've had in my stash.

I then also stamped my sentiments and cacti on the background where they would go. So I didn't have to worry about the trying to not cut the needles off, when I fussy cut them. 

I decided I didn't like how flat the cacti looked, so I used some copics to add a little shading to them (as you can see the in the picture with and without shading).

To finish the project I just added my page to my little journal and dated the bottom corner!
