Collage Fodder for Art Journal Journey

   I had an idea for this page to remember the fun weekend we had with friends. I like the way it came together.  I am sharing this collage fodder journal page for Bleubeard and Elizabeth's theme collage fodder, food and drink or both for this month's theme at Art Journal Journey

  Last weekend was opening hunting season for deer. When we were living at our woods home we held deer camp with lots of friends and lots and lots of good foods-so fun.  We had forgotten about that til I went with our friends for wine tasting events, as the first winery had live music and invited all the hunter's wives to come out for the day.

   I found a perfect magazine page with a deer so used that for the background. Grabbed the wine and friends stamps, a label from one of the wineries we liked the best plus the top of a wine tasting sheet, a little cut out with a leaf, also a scrap of dark brown eco printed paper, and then I grabbed the snowflake stamp and silver metallic ink (I forgot that ink takes forever to dry)  We were in the 20's and very low 30's all last weekend and the day they left this area got allot of snow. We just got a few flurries here at the lake

  I am still using the old German cookbook for my mixed media journal pages

  5. This page certainly came together perfectly. Whenever you look through your journal, you will remember this wonderful weekend with your friends. We had a cold windy day with snow flurries this morning, but temps are expected to warm up later next week. Hilltop Post

  9. What a lovely way to remember your good time with friends. My family hunted and my grandfather was a Maine Guide. Thanksgiving was always an evening meal as the men hunted all day.

  10. Sorry to be late visiting. I've been very sick and have mostly stayed in bed with my cats. Like you, it has been in the mid 20s F for HIGHS. It hasn't been above freezing for several days.

    I absolutely love this gorgeous entry for AJJ. It is a testament to friendship and also a great way to remember the weekend you spent with your friends. I LOVE the composition with the deer, too. Thanks for sharing this lovely piece with us at Art Journal Journey using Bleubeard's and my theme.
