And I have to say this is my favorite! I love the way you've used the organic die cut to spread out from the edges of your pages. Your collages are just perfectly composed--what a joy this is to see! Thank you for ALL of your wonderful inspiration this morning. I rather like this way of blog visiting; it gives some continuity to the 'conversation', as if I was really sitting down and catching up with an old friend. sarasclosethttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09721374629006409763noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8817270423416767524.post-63899058243828188182019-02-18T10:11:45.071+01:002019-02-18T10:11:45.071+01:00Such gorgeous pages!

Your pages have given me a lot to ponder~<br /> I really like the image, (the 'dreamer':) and the implications of 'growth and new adventures,' through all the vines and organic dies spreading across the pages! I enjoyed the hints of bling from the sequins too! I like a bit of that here & there; sometimes<br /> to a fault ; /<br />Great feel to this page and story Alison, thank you for sharing with us!!

It looks great broken up and climbing around your pages like ivy taking over an old building or long forgotten garden. The whole feel of these pages is very evocative and atmospheric it certainly summons up stories of this lovely long lost woman in the photograph.

That new die must be amazing, because you have definitely made it appear to spread across both pages. The ephemera is gorgeous and the flowers are perfect. I about flipped out at the amazing composition. There is romance, there is wistful dreaming, and there is a spread that speaks volumes about its creator. I'm thrilled you shared this with us using Rike's theme at Art Journal Journey, but I'm also thrilled just to appreciate this spread's beauty.Bleubeard and Elizabethhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10149710375520733752noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8817270423416767524.post-47086278716517933312019-02-07T09:47:53.745+01:002019-02-07T09:47:53.745+01:00A wonderful spread Alison and great use of the nat...A wonderful spread Alison and great use of the nature die cuts The layering on the left is just amazing and when I looked at what you used I realised I could do that:)<br /><br />The second quote in your words to today made me think.
