we all need a herd

where we are welcomed back

no matter how often

Altered Magazine Journal

(image by sonya batten)

  used my captivity by hurricane florence

to make a couple of altered magazine journals

the mini one is two magazines cut in half

and bound...the larger one just two bound

can't decide if i want to cover them in

brown craft paper or canvas

leaning towards the cloth

saw this idea on youtube by

dede willingham...awesome idea

not starting with a blank page

existing color palette 

collage

paint

ink

journal

ready to get my

creative mojo on!

Live Wild Flower Child

who knew altering magazine pages could

be so much fun....and addicting....

this is the original page that i scanned:

i opened this image in icolorama and changed

the style to simplify then took that to Analog app

and applied the scratches. i added the heart shaped

wording using Path On app. easy peasy... i

love the look.
