I managed to finish all my pages this weekend, so they will be sent all over the world tomorrow and here are the themes and the person I'll be sending my page to:
MY THEME IS CHILDHOOD
VALERIE - BIRDS
I received the background piece of a dictionary or encyclopedia page with definitions of the Eagle from someone I traded with in the past, I used Tim Holtz stamps and added the image of a bald headed eagle and a feather attached with a small stapler. This is quite a simple layout, but I just love it.ALISON - PAST TIMES
Ali wanted her Past Times theme in Tim Holtz Style. Now I don't know Tim Holtz' style very well, so I figured if I use Ranger products and stamps, I'd be on my way. The image is a real tin type gem photo that I picked up on eBay recently.JONI - BEACH / SEASHORE
The blue background is a leftover piece I created using the credit card technique and I think the vibrancy of the colour is just perfect for this beach scene.SUZE - WINGED TIME
I have wanted to use this paper with the clocks all over it and Winged Time was the perfect medium. Again another simple layout, but I felt if I added more to the piece the simplicity of the message would be overpowered.SANDRA - CATS OR DOGS
I decided to use a picture of my beautiful Beau when he was a little puppy for Sandra's theme. I adore my pooch and he's still just a cute, just a lot bigger.
TREEZ - OLDE WORLDE
A treasure map where the X marks the spot with a pirate, is pretty Olde Worlde.
When I've received all the pages for my miniature journal and I've finished the cover, I'll be sure to post again to show you how everyone has interpreted my theme.
