Art Journal Page for Mixed Media Place

At last I finally have a chance to post my journal page done for Mixed Media Place ! I want to thank every one who have left me so many wonderful comments on Facebook regarding this page.
The situation in Ukraine has not changed, the threat of conflict and war in the region still sadly and frighteningly grows.
With so many art / scrapbook friends living in Poland, Ukraine and Russia my heart is heavy for you.
Left this page HERE at ScrapBerry's .

War is a vile thing ! No matter where or when or why it happens. I can not help but feel saddened and very worried by recent events in the Ukraine and now also involving Russia. I know I live a million miles away, but today, because of technology, the world is made a smaller place......the images are there for us to see, to be shocked and saddened by, even though  we do not always know the truths behind the images.
  My art journal page is reflective of my thoughts on war..........."There are no words". There are no words that can adequately describe it, and there are no words  powerful enough to stop it !
                 I have used base paper "Drive All Night" from 7 Dots Dreamer Collection. Some stamping and embossing with white, two different stencils used, one with ink the other with texture paste. Lastly water colour paints and red acrylic paint.




Thank you for visiting me today. Amongst the daily grind of your coming week I hope you find some pockets of joy that put a smile on your face and gladness in your heart.
