Art Journal Mondays: Punches

I have started a new journal for my journey in learning to draw. And this week at the Stamping Bella blog, we had to create a page using punches. So I painted my girlie and added the embelishments.

For the background and for the girlie I used acrylic paints and some Distress Stains. The circles are embossed with a Sizzix folder and the borders are various ek Success border punches.

What do you think? Constructive criticism welcome. As I have said before I am still a novice in drawing and would love to get some hints and tricks to improve : )

Hope you all have a happy Monday!!
