Today a few friends and I are heading for the mountains where the weather is much cooler. Bleubeard opted to stay home. 
What a fun time we have when we spend summer in the mountains.
There will be rock climbing.
I'll meet my friends at the lookout station.
We'll bring plenty of water,
and have lots of fun. We'll protect ourselves from falling by wearing boots and using climbing ropes that have attached carabiners. 
Although mountaineering can be dangerous, we take every precaution to keep safe.
After all, we want this summer to be fun and memorable in a good way!
Materials used include white card stock I colored using handmade shimmering mists, various background (scrapbook) papers, corrugated cardboard, a magazine image, and a dictionary page I sewed together before adding the assembly to the substrate, a word brad (FUN), two washi tapes, various dimensional mountain and rock climbing ephemera, and a Micron pen for the sentiment.
Bleubeard and I are delighted you joined us today as I spent some of our summer vacation in the mountains, while Bleubeard held down the fort at home. We also hope you will join us at Art Journal Journey, where our theme is Summertime Love.
Beautiful page, hope you enjoyed the climb! My days of mountain climbing are over, but thanks for the memories. Hugs, Valerie

You will need a rub down and hot bath when you get back Elizabeth.
ReplyDeleteGreat page and a terrific adventure. Pity Bluebeard had to stay behind:)
I have climbed many mountains on hot days and on very cold days as well and it always felt like a great achievement. Last time I went to the summit of a mountain I went on a mountain railway to the top. Not quite the same excitement.
Love Chrissie xx
waue love this journal page and the layering ;O))
ReplyDeleteWow - so many layers! This is a beautiful journal page and a good theme - Summer in the mountains: It is much cooler than by the sea, and there are surely not so many tourists!
ReplyDeleteAnd you thought carefully of all that things you need for mountaineering!
Wish you happy days there!

ReplyDeleteI loved all the details and images you used as well. The boots look strong, sturdy and just right for climbing.
We used to go walking on the mountains in our Lake district, it was always cooler near the top on hot summer days.
