I started this art journal page after I saw a great idea from my teacher, Moira Richardson. She put different little metal gears on the page and then sprayed paint over them. How neat.
So I went into my DH's stash of nuts and bolts. I found some washers and such, laid them down in my journal, and used two colors of spray paint to develop my background. I wasn't sure what to do next, so I got up and left it alone. When I was reminded of the circles for this month's Sketchbook Challenge, I had a theme for my page.
I cut out a bunch of circles with my hole cutter, added washi tape, stencils and some sheet music. And I was set. Love the blue and brown together...

Cute! I love the look of the page as a whole and that color combination is great. Sort of a combination of texture and pattern that looks so nicely together!
Nice idea, and I love the colours!

Your page looks great! Love the colors and the muted background!
How clever to use the washers! It turned out great!
All the different sizes of circles are fun!
I love the blue and brown, too. The repetition of circles is really interesting.
I like how you used the washers to leave that mark. Blends together nicely.
Of course I love the music! What a neat idea with the washers.
I love blue and brown together, too. What a great idea to go into your husband's stash for this project!
