Art by Nancy Maxwell James

{Moonlight Altered Journal Page}

June 6, 2016

I finished another spread over the weekend into this altered book. I used watercolors first on the pages, then paint and a paper bunting that was cut apart and added to the bottom. On both pages, Paper Whimsy tags and images were used. I added little bits of lace, and typed up song lyrics to “Moonlight” and cut them into strips. I then added chalk with a q-tip. I spritzed the pages with Perfect Pearls Mist and of course layers of Matte Gel Medium were used.

Thanks for looking! :)

About Sugar Lump Studios

I am a dabbler. I love to create using all sorts of mediums...pattern papers, stamping, fabric, assemblage, collage, altered art, a never ending smattering of whatever strikes my fancy in whimsical moments. I find creating allows my soul to be fulfilled and love to spend hours in the studio.

    Oh my word this is awesome Nancy! Such creativity~
    I really like the way you journal on the strips & pieces of paper. I must remember this : ) Your colors are so deep; so rich. And the bunting/banner style is perfect, and soo cool! Thank you, Karen O

    I love the purple. It is so strong, and the whole composition is elegant. I love it!
