Such a great summer time journal. The shell looks so real, great ways to keep track of all you have done over the summer! Like the dural pockets on that one page, so creative and cool!

Your finished journal is just wow! So many details to discover and look at. All those amazing die cuts. Perfect for the theme of our current challenge. Your colors in red and blue and white just illustrate a really beautiful summer. It's those colors that make me think of the sea. Fabulous arrangement of all the pretty tags and dolphins and seagulls and lighthouses and everything. I can definitely hear the voice of the sea.
ReplyDeleteThank you for taking part in the current Everybody Art Challenge with your amazing journal.
Hugs, Uschi
