Altered Mixed Media Clipboard

This is our first challenge of 2017 at Creative Artiste.  Remember your project when entering this challenge must be mixed media. The term “mixed media art” is a broad definition that covers many arts and crafts, including collage, assemblage (both 2D and 3D), altered objects, including books and boxes, handmade greeting cards, artist trading cards (ATCs) and tags, art journalling and book making as long as you use more then 2 different media's. Hope you will join us this month. 

This month our sponsor is a company called "Things to Alter".   

Things to Alter has a great selection of good quality products for all of our mixed media projects. 

I have used a collage frame from Altered Things that I altered using Shabby Green embossing enamel from Stampendous.  The pictures of the solider are of my dad heading off to World War 2. I believe he was 18 in these pictures, too young to be going to war.   He was in the French Canadian Army Tank Core stationed in France.  I used the collage frame to accent some small bottle cap stickers from a book called Paris Passport. 

I also in my collage I used several stencils, stamps and metal words to convey the theme of my project. 

Here are some closer views.
