I hope these give you a little bit of inspiration for you own journal pages.
Below are 3 journal pages using Vera Lane Studiodigi images. They are 8" x 8" in size. I have used a variety of paints, stamps and stencils, and added a cat image from ZinskiArt on the page below. The animal characters below are from Octopode. My favorite part of the above three pages is my hand painted tree in the page above. I finished off this page using stamps from IndigoBlu.
