So, I made a generic collage using a kraft paper wrapping paper as my base - I made it larger than my book and folded over a flap that has my journaling under the flap. I used some of my stash of worldwide postage stamps, some magazine clips, rice paper jigsaw puzzle pieces and screen mesh. Not terribly inspiring, but I do like my splash of coral color (stamps from Taipei).
My hidden journaling says: "I never had a lemonade stand but loved drinking koolaid. My adult summer drink of choice is Long Island Ice Tea." (yum!)
Next week's Color of Summer is red - I LOVE red so look forward to being creative with that bright color! See other entries in the Color of Summer or the InTheSun journal pages for lots more creative ideas.
Terrific spread Terrie and so well thought out. Great stuff. xx

ReplyDeleteKoolaid makes a lemonade and a pink lemonade so I don't see why those wouldn't count. I think it turned out really interesting and I like the folded flap idea for journaling.
