Paper Mixing Bowl - January recipe

It's the start of a new term at the Paper Mixing Bowl... there have been a few changes tothe way things are run... so please if you want to take part in the challenge (and please please do!), make sure you read all the ettiquette rules very carefully.  The new reveal will be done on the 15th of each month and run till the 14th of the next month.

This is my layout for this month's reveal....

The recipe for this month is all about the sea... as in sushi. 

Now I don't particularly eat sushi at all... but I really did enjoy making my layout. I used the following design elements on my page:
 - the three colours
- metallic elements - I added microbeads
- splash - I tried to spritz my page which didn't work to well so ended up stamping in black and then added in a few more dots here and there
- bling it on - yip the SHINY microbeads as well as some glitter glue on my scrolls (can't remember the proper name for this product off the top of my head!)
- rolled paper - as I do quilling I rolled some paper strips which I added as little "golf balls"
- white space - yes there is lots of that!
- hand wrote my journalling... which doesn't say too much besides the who/what/when
