Journal Art

When I was working on the Strathmore workshop, I actually did about 6 or 8 pages, maybe more.  I usually work in multiples.  Here is a page I did because I had this piece of paper where I had imbedded some twine between two pieces of tissue.  I think I put some torn pieces of some of my art or writing as a border.  I then tried to use a spray ink over a paper doily to the edge too.  That just kinda gave me a speckled look, not a lace look.  Step two, I added the blue crayon and smear Pam showed how to do.  That was about as far as I got with it.  Then, the other day, I was on the blissful journaling site and she had a challenge to make a page using the number 5, blue and squares.  Well, this page was already almost done.  I added the 5's with my old stamp set, added the blue birds... thinking in my head "five blue birds squared equals________________.  I still need to fill in the blank, lol.  Here is the page.  I have decided I don't like the pages I have completed from this workshop... too much business in them.  I will be using parts of the elements she taught though.
So, here is the busy busy page with absolutely no point to it what-so-ever.

The red line is the book mark ribbon on my sketchbook... so just ignore it, he he.
