Cowra Japanese Gardens

June 1, 2024

Another great place to visit if you are in Cowra, the gardens are amazing, so beautiful and so peaceful. For my first page I attached a piece of Balmy Blue Countryside Inn 12″ x12″ Designer Series Paper to the left hand side of a Basic White 12″ x 12″ page. I attached a narrow strip of Night of Navy Designer Series Paper next to the larger piece. I also added two photos.

I printed my journaling onto Basic White card and punched the top using the Elegant Edge Tag Topper Punch I die cut two sets of leaves from Mossy Meadow card and one leaf from Granny Apple Green card using the Flowers of Beauty Dies. I also stamped the large outline flower twice onto Basic White card using Blackberry Bliss ink. I stamped the fill images using Blackberry Bliss ink which I stamped onto scrap paper first. I also stamped one outline small flower and fill image using the same technique and ink.

The flowers are cut out using the co-ordinating Flowers of Beauty Die. I stamped the double leaf image from the Flowers of Beauty stamp set twice onto Basic White card using Mossy Meadow ink. I stamped the fill image from the same stamp set using Mossy Meadow ink which I stamped onto scrap paper first. The leaves are cut out using the co-ordinating Flowers of Beauty Die. I layered the tag, flowers and leaves together onto the lower left hand corner of the page.

The title is cut from Night of Navy card using the Mini Alphabet Dies. I cut strips of the Countryside Designer Series Paper and attached them across the lower section of the second Basic White 12″ x 12″ page. I attached my photos to Balmy Blue card. I die cut several more leaves and stamped and die cut flowers and leaves as before. I also cut tags from the Designer Series Paper and punched the top using the Elegant Edge Tag Topper Punch. I stamped “Peace” from the Unbounded Love stamp set onto Basic White card using Granny Apple Green ink. I cut out the greeting using one of the Unbounded Love Dies. The tags, flowers and greeting are layered together around and over the upper right hand corner of the photo panel. The title is again cut from Night of Navy card using the Mini Alphabet Dies.

I am loving how beautifully these pages have come together.

Bye for now,
