Mixed Media Journal With Photo

I am so happy of what I made today. This is beautiful journal for my niece. I thought adding her photo on the front will make it special.
I envisioned this journal to be on the shades of pink, copper and gold, something pretty in pink. While I was doing the 3rd layer of paint color. I was no where near to what I would like it to be but I am glad I was able to pull it together.

Textures added are lace and some cut outs from my cricut machine. I used matte gel medium to glue them on the journal. I prep them with gesso and added metallic colors on it.

Flowers are all scrapbook embellishments and I added glass cabochons. I also added ribbon to complete the look of this journal. I think this journal turned out really pretty. Perfect gift for you a young lady.
