Art Journal challenge

I saw an Art Journal challenge for this week given by Marjie Kemper and had to sign up!  It is a basic Mixed Media journal, but I have all of the supplies I need to join and the price was right : )

 I found a sheet of bird images by Crafty Secrets in my stash and will use them as the theme of my journal.  The journal will be a sampling of techniques for me.  The background is Distress paints onto a brown paper bag. The punch at the bottom of the page is MS and the stamps are Technique Junkies. 

 This next page is a page from an old dictionary with added Distress inks. The bird is Crafty Secrets and the die cuts are from Ellenatinas and a sentiment by Technique Junkies. 

 I made this page using Distress Oxide Spray inks, added some acrylic paint for the circles and splashed with water. There is a strip of Washi tape at the bottom of the panel.  The middle image is from Crafty Secrets. The top and bottom are stamps from Technique Junkies and colored using Copics. 

Thanks for stopping by!
