My first art journaling page(s) ever

Melim (in Hebrew) means words. Words are magical. They make stories come to life... but how do they work?

Last year, I tried something new. I made an art journal cover (as you can see in a previous post), but I thought I had to try out making pages too!
These are the first two pages in my art journal, made last autumn (2016). Being totally new at this, I (mainly) followed the steps from this tutorial from Finnabair's blog.
