My First Altered Journal


Here is my ever first altered journal that i did. I am in a swap which I thought would be good for me to do and get into altered stuff. The acrylic embellishment that is on there is not acrylic, it is the utte and a stamp pressed into it. So I have used 2 different punches for the corners of the picture so give it pop from the era. which i think looks ok to me.
