Junk Journal Page Swap

I am participating in a junk journal page swap in June. The theme is "women" in vintage style. The page is 5' wide by 7" high.


Front


I collaged various bits of papers and text to the background base (file folder) before collaging a portion of a doily, some lace and image of flowers with the focal point of Edwardian ladies, an image from the internet. I added the little blue ticket to balance the blue of the paper at the top and the flowers and then added a large paper flower with a vintage button.  The cluster at the top right is made by clipping strip of lace, a piece of ribbon, a ticket with a postage stamp and a tiny button onto a bulb pin.


Back


The back is supposed to be very lightly decorated so I stenciled with Distress ink and then added two paper bits at the bottom. The recipient can still use this side for journaling if they so desire.
