Ring out the old….

I wanted to make one last entry for Art Journal Journey - Valerie had a great theme of Light and Darkness but I don't seem to have joined in much this time!
My page began with some old encyclopaedia pages torn up and stuck down. They had a sprinkle and spritz with a combination of Brushos and Infusions. 
I used a stencil or two and some stamps before adding the magazine pictures of some Christmas decoration houses.
I wrote out the words onto tissue paper and added them with matte gel glue.

Wishing you a wonderful New Years Eve celebration - however you choose to bring in the New Year - I'll be ringing in the new tomorrow!

Thanks for looking, Chris

Happy Healthy New Year to you and Tony and all for your family dear Chris! Thank you for visiting my Magpie's Nest and for your really lovely comments.
We are thinking about what adventures we might embark on for 2017.

Lovely piece you created. The warm glow invites me in.
