Art Journal Show & Tell...day 8 & 9

I am not behind in my art journal . . . I am behind in my blogging. 

Here is Page 8 :

I wanted to paint the background but it was a little too bold ,

so I covered it with vellum .

I think the chipboard letters look good .

It's exactly how I wanted it to look .

Here is Page 9 .

The green tape is too green ,

but I really like the gold stamped letters .

Not really  happy with this page . . . but what can you do?
Hope you were a little inspired !
