The flower of the month on 12 Months in view is the Bluebell.
We have a plethora of these in our garden, although they are not in full bloom as yet.
I made the origami bluebell earlier in the week.
I drew a Bluebell stem on my calendar page and added one of the Spring quotes around its leaves.
I then did my zine page for May using the Philip Larkin poem called "The Trees".
I used a couple of bare tree stamps and filled in with peg stamps, adding some around the border too.
So refreshing to see the trees coming into leaf.
About Me

- Hi, Welcome to my Blog. I'm an eclectic kind of crafter delving into many pots. I am just about managing to keep up my Scrapbooking Diary (usually about 6 months behind), plus any cards as required. I have a new found love of Watercolour and Bible Journaling plus recently Faith/Art Journaling too. I've challenged myself to make an art journal page a day for this my 60th year. Previously I've also dabbled in ATCs, Tags, Altered Books, Mixed Media, Décopatch, Knitting, Crochet, and Embroidery amongst other things. I live in Surrey, UK with my husband, our son has left home now. For exercise I usually play Badminton and go Ballroom and Latin Dancing. I also like walking/Geocaching and sometimes do a bit of Bouncing on my Rebounder (mini trampoline). I have been learning to play the harp for the past 10yrs. I am now officially retired. I am a born again Christian, currently worshiping at my local Vineyard Church.

Nice BJ! Lucky you to have bluebells growing in your yard. I have grape hyacinths which are kind of the same. Really like the origami bluebell and all your pages!
Lovely drawings of bluebells and I like your origami one too. Elizabeth xx
