This the cover of an Art Journal I am doing for the Journal 52 challenge but it can also qualify I think for this Loving Layers challenge as well. I Have used Modeling paste and stencils to give it some definition as well as a piece from an old dictionary, then sprayed with Lindy Sprays. I painted one of the birds with acrylic and the other I sprayed , then fussy cut them. I love that stencil. added some gears and typed out the verse from an old book of poetry my Mom had. hope you like it . I really enjoyed putting it together.

This is very delicate, yet strong. I love the elements you put together, and the two birds really pull it together. Great way to incorporate a bit from your mom, as well. I'm trying to do Journal 52, too, but I'm behind. Hahaha! Thanks so much for playing the mix-ability challenge!

This is really fantastic! I love the birds especially, but it's all terrific. Great touch adding hardware over your textured gears and sprockets. Hope to see more of your work -

I love your design, especially the birds, they are just beautiful. All of the elements and the "God's Will" poem make your journal cover extra special. Great work.
