DO YOU SEE ME ~ I AM

Hello on a winters day here, It is trying its best to snow and I am glad to have a day at home today.
I received some lovely mists in the mail from Scrapbook fantasies for a challenge I won and I had a little play , which led to ....
Do you See me ~ I am 


Which led me to create the page for the challenge at aall-and-create.
The criteria
  • A face
  • Papers (newspaper, printed paper, rice paper…etc.)
  • Letters, numbers
  • Blue for the colour of the European Union, Union Jack...
  • Ribbon, twine, string or lace…
  • Textures – take inspiration from history from ancient civilisations to the fall of the Berlin Wall
  • Something both vintage and modern
You don't have to use all the criteria, but I think I have used most of it.
Not sure if I am the only one, but I can see a face , which I have highlighted with a white gel pen ( on the right of my layout ) This made me think of a photo I took in Prague and hence that is how the layout came about.

Can you see the half face ? I see a eye and half a mouth .


I later decided to add some numbers

 The sculptor shows seven bronze figures descending a flight of stairs. The statues appear more "decayed" the further away they are from you - losing limbs and their bodies breaking open. It symbolises how political prisoners were affected by Communism.

Thank You for calling by, please let me know you were here, I love to read any comments and they are appreciated.

Love, Peace and Kindness
