Life unscripted a journal page

This is my latest page from my art journal.  I'd love to give you a tutorial on how it came about, but the fact is it took me over two weeks to finally get to the point of being finished!  I'd lay down a layer and then have to ponder a bit (usually a day or so) then add an other layer, well, you know how it gos if your into art journaling.  Sometimes it is more of a thought process, even if it looks like I just threw the paint and ink onto it! (which sometimes I do) I CAN tell you what I used on it: acrylics paint, gesso, modeling paste, stencils, black SstazOn ink,background stamps from Rouge Red Heads and Rubber Monger, and gold leafing....and I think that is about it.

There are two pictures because of the leafing.  It is so hard to photograph anything metallic, but the effect on this page is one that needs two photos.  This bottom one gives you the view of the ink over the leafing.  So it has two effects depending on how the light hits it.

The stamp of "Life Unscripted" is one I picked out of the dollar bin at Michael's, it seemed to fit the page, don't ya think?
