Morning Evening -I am so sorry Vicki, life has not finished with me yet and this month has just run away with me and couldn't believe it was the last Saturday in the month so time for the Smash your Stash Journal challenge with Vicki from Stamped Smiles who makes brilliant journal pages so please check her blog. The prompt this month was recycle/upcycle and my page this month is totally recycled.
The background was already made, the leaves in the corner was from packaging, the strip at the top was recycled from a kitchen roll inner- all the rest was a complete recycled-even the wax seal-from a card I received in a card swap and kept it because I loved it- now have it for ever to look at instead of in a box.
PLEASE NOTE IF ANY CHALLENGES HAVE DIGIS FOR PRIZES-I AM JUST PLAYING FOR FUN AND SUPPORT AS I HAVE NO PRINTER

Yay Carol! I'm so happy you were able to squeeze in your Art Journal! I love it with the monochromatic greens in there with the beautifully collage art you've done using your recycled pieces too! Those wax seals are so fun and I forget that they're perfect for the journals! The background turned out to be a great backdrop for your design too! Nicely done my friend!
Prachtige journal bladzijde Carol.
Prachtige achtergrond en mooie details.

I know who sent you the card...
I'm glad I could inspire you to create this journal page.
Oh, goodness, this is one of the most beautiful examples of recycling I've seen. Definitely would call it an upcycle. Wow!

I absolutely love your art journal page. Being a plant lover, of course, what is not to love about your motif? And those scraps of writing that found a way into your createive bouquet really add a nice vintage touch to your creation. I also like the handmade watercolour background and the little bird that is perfect for spring. Thanks for joining the Alphabet challenge.
Hugs, Veronika
Such a fantastic journal page! The rich greens and layered collage elements create such a striking and cohesive design. Love how every piece has been thoughtfully repurposed—especially the wax seal, which adds such a wonderful finishing touch. Beautiful work!
Great page! Thanks for playing along with us at A Place to Start!
