The large flower was inspired by none other than Julie Fei Fan Balzer; I saw something similar on her site. The black outline was done with a Martha Stewart ebony / dye ink double tip permanent marker, but it bled through the page (but this is a cheap-o journal I grabbed up at Big Lots); the purple petal are outlined with marker and then filled in with colored pencils in many colors to blend together. The leaves are done with various scrapbook markers. The red petals are colored pencil; but the innermost mauve petals are a scrapbook marker. The center is yellow marker with a swirl of orange marker over that and then tiny dots of green marker.
The word Peace is stickers that I doodbled around with a gold Creative Memories Precious Element Metallic Fine Tip pen - it writes so nice.
In the lower left hand corner are a little garden of doodled flowers and a vellum quote that says: "Plant kindness, gather love. Not sure who I got the vellum quote from as it has been in my drawers forever and a day.
In the lower right hand corner is a date sticker that I added the date 1-22 to; then I doodled a lace border around it in a sweet hot buble gum pink pen from Sakura Gelly Roll, I love these pens, but I especially love when I get a 'juicy one' ; some are just more liquid than others and I got this juicy pink one and juicy pretty robins egg blue one.
I used Zig's ColorBrush Twin Watercolor markers to give a very soft texture to the background in the different section.
Overall I am pretty pleased with this page.
