finishing touches

my collage in my journal today:


lately, i've been altering tins. but i've also been doing several pieces at once and for awhile none of them felt finished. thanks to cassandra's package of goodies - scrabble letters & many other things as well as lia's wonderful package of ephemera i have finally finished up some of the projects.



this is a 5 1/2 x 8 collage done on a cover of a book. it was a book of sonnets by shakespeare and the cover was falling apart.

a fashion themed altered tin:




originally, the inside had a belt buckle glued inside, but i couldn't glue it down flat so i had to remove it.

a school themed tin, full of found/ordinary objects:

Did you spell "school" wrong on purpose?
