A few months ago I found this magazine at Barnes and Noble and had to buy. It's just full of good eye candy. I even wrote about it here.
I finished reading it this past weekend (yes, it takes me a while to finish reads these days since I bounce around so much with various books, blogs, and magazines). And I just couldn't make myself get rid of it.
Why not reuse-recycle-repurpose? It's a trend I've been trying to support. Like when I redid my business cards using my old ones. Or when I created new art from someone else's art.
The magazine already has some gorgeous full page photos that I left intact, such as these....
And other pages with quotes...
The pages that wouldn't work so well for my travel journal? Cover them with the gorgeous wrapping paper that came included in the magazine. And maybe finger paint with gesso...
There was also a pull out mini journal included in the magazine full of grid paper. Get out the Modge Podge and cover a few more pages...
How would that can of gold spray paint look on magazine pages? Like this....
And maybe drag some gold paint and gesso around other pages using an old gift card....
I love the way the magazine is getting thicker and thicker as I'm filling it with art love....
Stay tuned for part 2 when I add journaling and photos and anything else I can glue down while we're in La Jolla for Fall Break. We'll be loading the car up and heading west in 4 days.
