The Day 4 class by Michelle Ward was titled, Let's Have Take Out. For me, it was a much needed lesson in softening the look of a background and I loved it! Unfortunately, my end result did NOT look like Michelle's page! Not even close. I had ZERO success.
I am not giving up though. Oh no, no, no! I will keep working at it as opportunities arise in this class and beyond because I want to get it! For the moment, however, I'm moving on to Day 5.

The Day 5 instructor was Michelle Rydell and her project was named, 7-Step Journal Page Recipe. I had a good time working on this project!
Here it is.
Do You See What I Hear?
(Ignore the ugly, muddy color surrounding the piece.
I scotch taped it to my quilting design wall to flatten it.
Actually, it's not a wall at all. It's white felt-like fabric hanging over a door!)
I followed Michelle's 7-step recipe pretty closely but I used a few additional supplies.
It took a long time to find magazine pics (words were easy) because 99.9% of the magazines around here (not counting hubby's) are instructional ones that I subscribe to so I don't want to cut into them. I finally found a couple of miscellaneous magazines hidden amongst the rest and a few circulars from the mail. YAY!

I really had fun with the dots, probably because I love dots. Adding them at the end of the process really perked up the page too! Note that a white dot is missing from inside something. I just discovered it.
Can you find it?
I guess it's my version of Where's Waldo, only let's call it--Where's the Missing Dotto?
