Wreck That Journal

Another week and more wrecking.

I think I had just as much fun visiting all the other blogs and discovering what a wonderful wrecking crew we have as I did playing.

The problem with visiting is that too often it led to detours to other places which led to more detours!There is so much creativity -one person's responses to a page inspires you to try something new and different.

Collage is my favourite form of creation. So the first page I tackled this week was the "white" page. As I looked in a magazine for white things, I kept seeing 4 letter words. A light went off! Okay - I would collage words.

Next I traced my open hand. When I looked at it I realized the opposite is a closed fist, so I did that as well and brainstormed words for both.

I also added business items and added the magazine page.

There were other pages started -1 coninuous line; adding stamps and fruit stickers, making circles.

I'm still having difficulty truly defacing the book - taking it for a walk, slinging food at it, taking it into the shower, or adding dirt.

At least I haven't given it a name!

I will try to get more destructive and "down and dirty" in the weeks to come.
