Finished the layout using the strip background, used part of a monoprint to make the heart.
I added some Wink of Stella, plus metallic crayon.
Another one of my vintage stamp sets, these are from the late 1940s. They're from a set designed to be used in the classroom, and come with some great line art stamps as well.
Some challenge inspiration:
Word Art Wednesday--anything with an uplifting sentiment
The House that Stamps Built--anything but a card
Retro Rubber Café--Cross My Heart, must use older stamps (late 1940s teaching stamps)

Day 17 produced some very pretty art!
LOVE the journal pages, and of course" to the moon and back" is one of my favorite sayings.
I love your pages . . . I started an alter book and for three years it has been on the shelf. I think I need to get it down and finish it up or at least add to it. You are a wonderful inspiration, thanks :)
Connie, that book had been on the shelf for YEARS, and now it's almost full! Just glue it, art sister!!

Love that pretty heart! Beautiful page.
Very pretty journal pages - especially the sentiment to the moon and back. Thanks you for joining us at The House that Stamps Built this week.
Wow! This is amazing! Thanks for joining us at The House that Stamps Built! Hope to see you back here soon!
Very cool!! I really like that strip background and the sparkle on the heart! Great way to do the sentiment, too. The House That Stamps Built.
Hello Trisha: WOW!! I've never, ever seen a project like this, I went back to check the other pages and I was amazed by the beautiful designs and details of each. The project you shared with us at RETRO RUBBER is beautiful, I love the sentiment and the background you created with the strips of print.
Thank you so much for joining us at RETRO RUBBER, the stamps you used are truly vintage and beautiful.
Hope you join us again next time.
Hugs,

What an unusual but very interesting project! I have been so afraid to do these journals but am starting to think it's time to have some out-of-the-box fun! Your background is really great and a perfect backdrop for your beautiful heart. Thank you for playing along with us at Retro Rubber and hope you will join us again soon.
Your Book is looking amazing Trisha!!! Love the heart page.
