Project Runway CJ time again - and this month it's the wedding dress challenge.
The brief for this journal was to use at least three altered or transformed elements (papers, embellies etc) on a double page 8"x8" layout - to reflect how the Project Runway designers altered and transformed old, unfashionable wedding dresses into something wearable.
I wasn't sure where to start with this one at first - as it was free theme - so I started to play with transforming some background papers - eg this one which started life as a floral print, until I got to it with the gesso and my airbrush - and the sea and sand colours I ended up with screamed BEACH!
So to the beach I went :)
My altered elements are the background papers, the chipboard letters for the title which I "sandified" with a mix of embossing powders in white, orange, and beige, the footprints which are paper clips that I spraypainted copper,
and the round, shell embellishments which I appropriated from an old hair band:
(plus I guess the tags count as altered too as I painted and sprayed them?)
All in all this was a fun entry to pull together - just like proper scrapbooking! The journal even had proper page protectors. I haven't seen one of those in years.

Hurry up summer!
