River Reverie

Give cheer Give a Cheer
Favorite

Made for CSI #58, used all 5 colors required
For my evidence: wood (buttons), twine, fabric (tulle & cheesecloth), jewels (crystals and antique glass beads), jagged edges, sheer (gel medium, tulle).
For my testimony: I documented a getaway by letting my thoughts wander back in time to a day in 1988, and used the inspiration words escape and reverie. Full journaling is found by pulling out tag attached to twine at the top of the layout.
"Such a hot summer day. We longed for a cool place. We were on vacation visiting Grandma and Grandpa. We drove to the Old Mill in Arlington, and there we found our escape on the banks of the Battenkill River! Lovely cold water rushed and tumbled over smooth rock boulders, sending up spray everywhere! There were shallow pools and broad ledges. We dangled our feet in the bracing water and enjoyed it's tonic effect. You were a bit shy of water at the time, being just 3 years old. Whilst your older sisters and brother splashed about in the riotous water, you remained apart, seemingly lost in a reverie, gazing at the beauty around you. A most private child....."
