I’m not exactly sure what it is but rick-rack gives me a comforting, nostalgic sort of feel. Almost like an embrace from the past.

After white washing the pages I added a lovely napkin over top then enhanced some of the color with a bit of gelato.

I love how the thin napkin lets the words peek through. Just a hint….not all. I added a Tim Holtz phrase sticker because I can’t seem to make a page without words. At least not very often. 

I thought I might be done with the page when I noticed a scrap of paint chip…perfect for a bit of journal writing. I had to document my feeling of nostalgia from the rick-rack. 

I am in love with this page. I don’t often say that about my work but this one really makes me happy!!!

Linking up with Art Journal Journey for Hello Springtime once again.
