art journal challenge - week 19

ok, no fluffing around - here is this weeks card.

the prompt is: surprise!
have you been surprised lately? how do you feel about surprises? got a funny story to tell about a surprise? ever pulled a good one on someone? had a surprise party?

i covered my card with ledger paper and stamped the journalling circle to write in. added letter stickers, coloured around the edge in purple watercolour pencil then licked my finger to 'smudge' in the paint (hey, i had to improvise as i was travelling!). the exclamation mark is a post-it note from www.bobsyouruncle.com

so, surprise us this week with your creation - can't wait to browse through them all again this week as i veg out on my couch!
