The Creative Type #15

For a fun challenge over at The Creative Type:



The challenge was to journal directly on your photo, which I do all of the time, so I extended the challenge to myself to make a photo just for the journaling! The journaling block is actually a photoshoped picture of the stage. I had every intention of sewing a spot in the page protector for the playbill, but got lazy and attached it with brads instead. Just so you all know, it also took a ton of bravery to put that photo on the page! I think I look pretty darn horrible, but I'll live.
