This is my go at this month's creative techniques challenge. I used the blending and sticker techniques. https://ozone.oscraps.com/forum/showthread.php?t=21711

Journaling: Almost every day, Olivia comes home with scrunched up papers in her pockets. When I smooth those papers out, I usually find the beginnings of a story. She has a gift. If she knew I saved all those stories, shed be mad. She would tell me that I had done something wrong. But how can I throw them away or leave them to get lost in the jumble of our lives? I love reading these stories and, hopefully, someday Olivia will be happy that I saved them.

and here is part of one of the stories on the page: We gotta get going if we are gonna make it to the ravines, said a man called Will. Liz, his wife, pushed him back into the seat. I dont think youre going without me. Did you? She snickered. Her voice sounded all too smooth. Will gave a sarcastic grin, pushing her hand off his arched shoulder. He stood up and said, Yes. Liz narrowed her hazel brown eyes. She humphed and flipped her head around stomping out of the darkly lit room. The men laughed and Will held up a hand for silence. He cleared his throat and finished his speech. The men cheered. One man with a scar and olive skin gave a toothy smile. I will be guard. Several men argued. Holding up a hand, Will announced, Pack your things men, were heading out tonight, then left the room. He headed to the small cabin across the road. His leather boots softly crunched the leaves as he made his way across a tree covered highland. Hours seemed to go by before Will reached the cracked wooden door of his home. He walked in and packed his gear. Slapping the old green bag over his shoulder he stomped out the door. He trudged back to the gambling hall meeting up with the others.

Thanks for looking :)
Adyane, this is wonderful and so creative..........mmm. wonder where Olivia gets her talents!! She certainly has a gift with words and LOVE that you created this page. She doesn't have to know you keep these little works of written art she creates, but one day she will so appreciate that you did.
 
WOW! Olivia does have a magical gift. Just love how you documented this and that you are saving these little treasures.
 
Love your idea of the story snippets stacked behind her and the red bookmark! (What a cool idea for a classroom project)
 
I can't even tell you how much I love this! The stories you find crumpled up are absolutely priceless. Someday, she'll adore that you have confiscated them! Wonderful page, Adryane.
