Mid-September should be the height of migratory season. The Canadian National Park website even listed the particular birds that we would see. Well, they were either early birds or taking a detour because the only fowl we saw were two ducks who seemed very much at home in the marshland.
No matter. It was a perfect walk in the breeze, so peaceful after zipping around freeways and trying to take in everything we could in museums for two days.
For the page, I was going for a peaceful, neutral look. I'm not much of a neutral person so gold and navy ARE neutral to me. The background paper from BasicGrey's Persimmon line was perfect. It looked like the cattails we saw among the grasses and reeds.
For embellishment, I stamped an image and used some pastels on Studio Calico canvas leaves. I also added a bingo card embellishment. The photo mats are some cardstock repurposed from another project.
Here's the video at YouTube:

I enjoy doing these process videos. I'm always looking for ways to make them more useful. Suggestions are most welcome.
