Heartfelt Creations June Alumni Blog Hop

Hello friends! It's that time again when we are hosting the Heartfelt Creations Alumni Blog Hop. As always, you will have the chance to win a $25 gift certificate to shop at Heartfelt Creations.   All you have to do is comment on each blog that is participating in the hop. Hop starts 8am EST on Friday June 30th and closes Monday July 3rd at 11:59pm EST.

 

What do you do with catalogs that you haven't ordered besides throw them in the trash?  I learned recently that they make awesome journals.

I've been wanting to make a collection of my favorite songs and decided to use this magazine as my base.  I combined 2 stamps by masking the edge of the water and adding the tree.  


The main image was colored with Prismacolor pencils; the background was done with chalks.  


The words were printed from the computer and cut out with the tags die.  Does anyone know the words to this song?  It was one of my favorites when I was growing up.

    I like the innovative way you have used recyclables to be the basis for your journal. P.S. I don't know the words to the song.
