Art Journal Page #5

On this page I wanted to include some snippets of things I have gone to and done so far this December. The page I had originally started on this page no matter what I did just kept looking weirder and cheesier.  After a full two hours of trying I just covered the whole thing in duct tape and tried again :D.  The paint pealed off of the duct tape a little in one part put I heavily Mod Podged it and it hasn't pealed any more since that one spot.  

So to create the background on this page I took a berry red color, a light grey/green and an off white then I used a credit card to blend the colors around.  After that dried I used a light blue and a sponge brush and splotchy smeared it onto the page.  Then I arranged the  pieces that I had cut out across the page and used Mod Podge to attach them all.  
This Willy Wonka ticket was cut out from my ticket to the musical that my friend was in, I also cut her name out of the program and put it next to the cut out.  The DEC and 2014 are also from the program,  

The "Holiday Windows" thing is from an intermediate school performance that two of the kids I babysit were in and I went to watch them.  I wrote their names out on some blue paper and put them next to it.  

The penguin and snowmen are from one of the days of my daily calender and I just cut them out of their backgrounds to put on here.  The big black DEC was just a random scrap that I found laying around and I painted it black.  Over all it is not one of my favorite pages but it is not horrible either :).
