Collage Journal, part 2

Well, I had every intention of coming back last week and posting these photos.... but it was my birthday and Peter surprised me with a new coffee table for my reading room (not really a surprise since I had already picked it out, but he did pay for it and that counts in my book!) And a new coffee table meant rearranging furniture and moving some wall art, which then lead to a massive deep cleaning of the entire house. Funny how that works! So here we are, Tuesday evening :) 

 I worked on these pages the week before we went up to Oregon. I ended up really liking that vintage bird book I found in Vacaville, and decided to keep up with the theme through these pages as well. I have probably one more collection of photos to share, but we'll start with these for now (plus, I need to finish up dinner!) Thanks for looking!!

SO beautiful + inspiring! It reminded me about my own collage journal that I really should update with a vintage flower guide I have and take photos of.

Great work!
