ALTERED RECORD

this is one of two altered records I did recently using an "old 78 record" from a secondhand shop..
I remember these from my early childhood ...

I used Graphic45 papers and of course Imaginarium Chippies ...

I have journaled a few of my "fave" things I love about scrapbooking ... and added the date on the back for future reference ..

I also altered a second record, adding metal elements and chippies, which I am much happier with ... I will post some shots of that one next week ..





thanks for droppin' by beautiful people.
So many of you leave love for me to read and they give me a warm and fuzzy feeling.
I feel truly blessed and I am happy in my heart to have so many followers and encouragement from all of you ..
love and hugz

    You have done such a beautiful job of this Heather, it's gorgeous ( even better in real life, the colour was deeper and I could touch all that beautiful textural goodness ). You are clever gal. xx

    Very cool Heather! Now what do you do with this - are you going to put it up on the wall or does it fit into a 12" sleeve in your album - ? - just wondering as I never really know what to do with my altered pieces (so I stick mainly to layouts)

    Such a stunning piece of altered art. Love the look of it. Did you stick it to the background we see or is that just for the picture?
    Can't wait to see the second one!
