Be Yourself...

Well it's the first day of my two week break from work and boy is it needed!! I really enjoyed playing around with my journal last week so decided to do another spread. You know when people say 'I threw everything at it' well I did!! paints, inks,glimmer mist,archival inks,frantage, you name it and it's probably on there!! It also has all sorts of textures including plasterers tape to string to grunge paste and lots more.
It has so many layers I lost count but had a fabulous time doing it.. I love the quote by Oscar Wilde..'Be yourself ...everyone else is already taken'...so true lol.. I also love this stamp from tim Holtz and couldn't find it anywhere until my friend Sam found it at an excellent price too!..thanks again Sam..

Well here it is..I must apologise for the piccie...it looks like it has loads of red on it which it doesn't..I just take awful pictures!!





Thanks for stopping by.....

    Really scrumptious textures and colours - all the layers give such amazing depth. And are those actual plant stems? Either way they look glorious! Beautiful, beautiful pages.

    Hope you enjoy a fabulous break from work!
