I'm once again joining Rike at Rike's Art our host this month at Art Journal Journey. Rike's theme is Fruit and Veggies.
I call this one berries and cream.
This may be stretching the prompt at Try it on Tuesday, but that ice cream looks Cold, Cold, Cold, their theme this fortnight. Awhile back, I was gifted with a few pages from a French cooking magazine, and found one that looked like it dealt with desserts.
The magazine appears to be from June, 2013. I'm always on the hunt for foreign language pages, so, even though I can't read the words on the page, I can understand the pictures. 
I used my translator to get baies et crème. Hopefully it is correct.
It certainly looks like berries and some kind of ice cream or sherbet in a waffle cup to me. And the instructions at Try it on Tuesday were to use something cold like ice! 
For this mixed media journal entry, I began by gluing a page from a French cooking magazine to 110 lb card stock. While it was drying, I fussy cut around the waffle cup and affixed it to a doily I swiped with turquoise dye ink. I wanted to give the doily a hint of color, but not completely obliterate the white. I printed the French and English words on my laser printer and colored around the words using the same dye ink.
Thank you so much for joining me today. I really appreciate your visit. I hope to also see you at AEDM, Try it on Tuesday, and Art Journal Journey.
This is Day 15 of AEDM hosted by Leah Piken Kolidas, and I
created an art journal page for the challenge themes at Try it on Tuesday and Art Journal Journey.

Delish page today and our weather is perfect for the berries and icecream..x
Wonderful page, but the wrong weather here for any cold ice! Enjoy your day, Valerie
I don´t like sweets, or only once in a while, but especially: I have to go with Valerie... way too cold for cold stuff ;-)
Tea, please!!!
I love this berries ice cream on the waffle!
Great post!
Happy day

Let me first answer your question. Yup, you did leave a comment. I just never got onto the computer last night. and this looks yummy. Maybe just the waffle and fruit for me since it is breakfast time. And I like the French page. Nice touch. Have a super day. Hugs-Erika
Looks yummy!!! x
It looks like I could just reach out and pick up that spoon and help myself, and so with your permission... ;) What a delightful representation of "cold" :)
A wonderful page, Elisabeth
Thank you for joining us at TRY IT ON TUESDAY
Amazing page! I love how you fussy cut the waffle and placed it on the doily - fabulous 😀. Happy Friday and wishing you a lovely weekend too! Hugs, Jo x
Delicious page you created though too cold for ice cream for me. And I'm not a huge fan of ice cream especially in Winter, but when I do indulge, I love having it in a waffle bowl. I like how you made the doily stand out from the background page.
Ohh, you have made a dessert page with icecream and berries surrounded by a beautiful doily - and even with a spoon! And here is the reason I am so surprised - my last posting will also be a dessert :)) - just finished and waiting for the last days of the month.
Your dessert looks so delicious, I want to take the spoon and ... mmhhh!
Thank you for such an eyecatcher for my theme at AJJ!
Wish you a happy weekend! Rike xx
This piece seriously makes me want to go to the kitchen to create this dish. Beautifully executed.
The berries and cream look delicious and your fabulous mixed media page does fit our TioT's theme so well .Ice cream is for sure cold. I also liked the look of the magazine you used, I think the pounds would go on the hips just looking at the pages.

Hi there. I just wanted to say thanks. I will try to write a post tonight and pre schedule. if you can pop it up, I would appreciate it. If you can't, that's OK too. Thanks again!
Love this page! Looks like a delicious treat. I’m guessing that’s some sort of berry sorbet. I like how you put it on the French pages too. The tint on the doily and matching tint on your words works really well.
And in my Friday morning not being able to wake up, I forgot to say thanks for joining us at TIOT. I am really late saying that, but it is definitely appreciated. Hugs-Erika
looks delicious :)
That dessert looks refreshing, although maybe best on a hot Summer's day!Hugs,Chrisx
It does look rather chilly, best enjoyed on a hot day!
Thanks for joining us at Try It On Tuesday challenge
