It was wonderful to see so many different ways of incorporating text into your projects.

 It was tough to narrow the entrants down, but here are my Top 3:

#35 Helen Liu

I love the graduating colour change in the background and the use of the layering. The stencilled leaves add subtle detail allowing the purple flower to stand out.

#63 Kate Yetter

A beautiful journal spread with a wealth of colour and texture. The use of threads and fabric add interest and the way that the figure's face is framed really draws the eye in.

#111 Paper Wishes By Amanda

I love the timeworn feel of this piece and the rich colour combination. The stencilled and textured background adds depth and interest, recreating a rusted patina finish perfectly.

Special Mention goes to:

#109 Sara's Closet

The attention to detail in this travel journal is incredible. There is so much to see, little tags and pockets, and vintage ephemera. Such a labour of love and a pleasure to see.
