I made this following a prompt by Casper in the Art Journaling group at On The Wing. The background is a torn map, highlighted with oil pastels, and the balloon is Caran D'Ache Neocolor II Watersoluble crayons (I just love the way they layer), with letters printed on white paper and glued on top. The basket is distress ink that's been sprayed with water for a neat effect. I love the reminder to Enjoy the Process of Life!!

I absolutely love this.... you are very talented Miss Teri :)
this is so cool. your talent amazes me, Teri.
Yes, enjoy the ride! Love the background and balloon!
I like the style and it's definitely delivered the message in a flamboyant way ^^ for sure it's catchy enough to grab attention, must like a poster that makes people go like "WOW!"
Thank you Teri for your feedback on my comments for Emily. I forgot to mention in that post that my main weakness is challenges. I took my parents' wishes as a challenge, and constantly telling myself that "if I can do well in something that I don't even like, imagine what I could achieve doing something I really like" ^^
Ah well.... life is short, so it should be fun!
Wow, Teri, this is so pretty. Love the way your map background looks. You just gave me a good idea to try layering inked pieces of maps onto each other, thanks, yeah, when I finish everything else... :-)

See you're jealous about how many books I get read and I'm jealous of how many fantastic things you create. Maybe I could turn my almost entirely unused dining room into a craft/reading room and then I could start taking up some of the neat ideas you give us!
