My latest project is an Altered Journal for a friend. She is a school teacher and I grew up with her family. We did not meet until I started working at T J Maxx. She is an awesome person so I thought to waste my talents on her so to speak.
This first picture is the completed book. I just wish my ipad would take better pictures and do justice to the way the journal looks
When we untie the lace this is the front cover. I had gone thrifting last Friday and came across some vintage doilies. I used part of the green one for this journal. I use vintage in my projects. I just like the look that it gives.
This is the back of the journal. More vintage doilies of course!
I made a pocket right in the middle of this journal for little keep sakes or pictures or what ever Chanel wants to use it for. As you can see I used scrap book paper and those images? They are old greeting cards. I love how they compliment the over all theme of the journal.
On the insides of the journal cover I made more pockets for keep sakes.
I am really enjoying this exploration of Altered/Media Art. The possibilities are endless. Sometimes we have to leave behind of what was to move forward.
