Hi Everyone! I've been counting down for weeks, and it's now only one more sleep until our daughter arrives back in the UK. The house is clean, the fridge is full of salad, fruit and beer, so I did some art journaling in my little 6x4 inch book.
I collaged some music text and partial teabags, covered with gesso, added 3 more teabags, book text circles, lots of doodles with Posca Paint Pens, and some text from A Midsummer Night's Dream.
I'm linking my pages to Chris' Art For Art's Sake Challenge at Art Journal Journey, and also to the Book Paper Challenge at Try It On Tuesday.
Until next time,
Alison xox
Gorgeous. I am really drawn to red at the moment and the touches of red really drew me into this piece. Love ❤️❤️
