mixed media challenge

I think for someone who said this is not their comfort zone... you have created a very inspiring page. I like the use of the twig and the blackbird embellishment. All the torns papers have added well to the feel of the page. 

I agree with Anne Marie - what a great page, Hilary!  Great photos of your famliy gardeneing and I like how you put together your background and perched the blackbird on top of one!   I really like this page.   

The strips of paper are perfect, they anchor the photos to the page and draw your eye to them.  Great layout!

It certainly is a great page Hilary....your cheeky blackbird looks like he is joining in all the fun  

Beautiful page. Love how you lifted the corners of your photos!

What a fun bird! Love your photos and nature embellishments. Looks like a fun time based on the smiles!
