Old Art Journal Book Cover tutorial

Hello everyone

 Today  I am on my blogpost with my first art journal book cover which I embellished ....
this was my entry for a challenge at papericious blog...This is my first art journal book and first entry at papericious blog challenge so little excited...The challenge topic was 
Old + New I had created this theme on my old art book.. I had got 2 books binded at a stationary shop 4.5 yrs ago for my kids sticker album.. but one of the book was still lying in blank left little stained and dirty... though I started few pages with art journaling but cover page was not sure what to and how to be embellished on...When I saw this challenge it gave me a kick to do something on my old cover paper and hence I chose this...I have the entire process recorded in my DSLR will soon edit and 
upload the tutorial on my youtube channel of this cover...

I had used collage circles of papericious brand which happens to be one of my favourite prints.

These are the collage circles sheet and prima pattern paper I used in my project.
