The therapy of magazine cutting

I collected articles about Travels when I was in school ~ I still love traveling

I collected articles & pasted them in my diary when I started work ~ I need motivational/encouragement

And now, I collect images (ephemera) for journal play ~ I need retreat section

1) Find inspiration throughout the process
2) Calm my mind & nourish my soul (sometimes hurt my back)
3) To save more room (ooh...my messy art room)
4) Revived those pretty images under the huge stacks.
5) Saving those images for journal, the images speak to me.

Something to remember


rear

Those vintage Asian labels are remarkable
The washi masking tape
The crochet stitches

I just realised that I have posted at a rate of at least 1 post per day since Mar' 2010 until today.
I have so much to update but seems that time was a major constrain for me at the moment.
But ... see how..
