Nov Style Chall - bird life

So cute Justine.. love your photos and how you split the photo... I have always loved Pelicans... everytime I see one, I hear my Dad recite his little poem "The Pelican is a funny bird... his beak holds more than his belly can!" Love all the papers here and love your journaling.. so true re escaping from the noise & people!

@cfile oh yep, i haven't heard that one in years - i couldn't remember how the rest went but thanks to google, it's all here https://www.familyfriendpoems.com/poem/a-wonderful-bird-is-the-pelican-by-dixon-lanier-merritt i should include it on the next page i make to go with this instead of journalling! thanks for reminding me of it!

@bellbird oh I love hearing the rest of it!!! Thanks for sharing the link.. Love it.. it always make me smile re my Dad Love your page!

Justine, when I saw the little thumbnail of this page I thought they were like ceramic pieces NOT the real thing! I love how the paint and paper layers make this so real.

Oh wow! Fantastic split, love the enlargement of those two chatting with each other.

I like how you inset a close up into your split photo. And I agree totally about escaping the crowds. Great layout.

Thought that looked familiar from my days in Singapore! Loved seeing this

Justine, you are always such an inspiration!!!!! regarding what you said in the thread... I think it is fine this way, because the photo is actual split , you just added the close up... love how the colors are in harmony with the photos and we can feel the beauty of the day, gorgeous touches with the word strips and the circle, and love that staple!!! (I wish one day I ll be able to properly shadow a staple like you did here!!!! gorgeous all over, as usual!!!!!!!
Thanks you so much for playing with us!!! (and apologies for the delay in me getting here!)
