I'm back with another entry for Alison's (aka Craftytrog's) theme at Art Journal Journey. By now you probably know she has chosen Come Fly With Me as her theme.
Bleubeard and I called this entry Seaplanes for an obvious reason. It is also the Best way to see Alaska.
We even have a few detail shots.
I started this page by sewing the focal image to the vintage sheet music, rick rack, and 110 lb cardstock. I have never sewed rick rack behind a focal image before and I quickly learned after I took the photo, that it was a bad idea. It left a lump under the focal image. Live and learn is what it's all about, I guess.
I computer generated the words, cut them out, and outlined them using a blue felt tip marker.
Bleubeard and I greatly appreciate you dropping by today. We both hope to see you at Art Journal Journey with your own interpretation of Come Fly With Me.

Alaska is a place I would love to see. Sadly I don't think it will happen.
Alaska might be a tad too cold for me, but your work is inspiring!
One wants to hum along :-)
Lovely page, and I would love to go on a seaplane, perhaps in my next life! Have a great weekend, take care, hugs, Valerie
...we went up in a seaplane one fall in the Adirondacks, what a fabulous experience.
Maybe if I search for it on youtube I might be able to find a seaplane visit to Alaska. It's the only way I would ever be able to do that and it sounds marvelous! :)
Cute page and I love the pun.
very nice
I'll believe you, don't think I'll be trying it though! I love this sewn page Elizabeth, its perfect for Alison's AJJ theme, hugs, Chrisx
This is a lovely page.
Happy weekend wishes.
All the best Jan
Flying in a seaplane and visiting Alaska would be fun right now. That's a great photo and a fun idea for a page for Alison's challenge. The ric-rac looks like water too, and is a nice addition. Has it cooled off any? Hope you're having a great weekend. hugs-Erika
I can see the bulge wher you placed the rick rac braid. Interesting composition
Happy Sunday
Much💜love
that's wonderful, so romantic with the song sheet and the plane, great idea your journal page!
Happy sunday, hug Elke
I love this entry for the challenge Elizabeth! The colours and stitching are gorgeous.
