  • Hi there! I'm Rosie and today we're starting a collage journal! I wanted a space where I could fill up a blank sketchbook with a bunch of collages and have a place to experiment and have fun.
    Using magazine cutouts and images from thrifted books, I create weird and surreal handmade collage pieces to fill up a journal with handmade paper art.

    Creating a handmade surreal art collage is easy! I share my tips and techniques on how I create my analog collages as I cut out pictures and illustrations out by hand with a small pair of scissors and a craft knife. Finding inspiration from old books is one of the most fun steps to this process. These can come from used books, encyclopedias, magazines, vintage postcards, or anything else you can find lying around your house. I find most of my books and magazines from thrift stores, antique stores, flea markets, Craigslist, or even on the side of the road! Watch as I arrange my elements and try different ideas as I talk through my process to create my final design. And, there is an added challenge of only being able to use materials that you have access to!
    Want to try creating your own? Just grab a magazine, scissors, and a glue stick!

    Both those collage characters turned out adorable, and I can’t wait to see how this project unfolds for you!
    My two cents: to avoid the book getting “gator mouth”, consider carefully removing some of the pages to prevent it from bulking up too much.

    Oh my gosh, I have that same sky/tree background saved for the “perfect” collage. I loved how you used it.
    You inspire me to have fun with collage.
    One of the things I do each day is make inchie quilt collages in a journal.
    I started the 100 day project in 2021, making one a day. I recently completed day 570 and started journal #10.
    Thanks for the inspiration and thought process as you create.

    Love those little journal collages. I have a journal for my small collages .
    Its filled up now and so fun to watch now and than.
    I did not do collages on the left side. It only lookes good when they match like in this case yours did.
    But if they dont match its very distracting.
    And the journal will bulk up if you do both pages and dont remove pages
    I am looking forward to your collages in this journal!

    Yours was the first video I have watched that had to do with magazine collage. I am a TOTAL newbie, and I found your video VERY interesting, not to mention entertaining. I related so much to your sense of fun! I've been collecting some magazines and cutting them up. I got some from my local Buy Nothing group, some from the library, and some from a thrift shop. I loved your filing system, especially the one with the page protectors. That way, I can see what's in there at a glance. Thank you for sharing your video with me!

    Love your creativity! I have been following your videos for awhile and you inspired me to create some collage this summer. At first, I tried doing collage in a sketchbook but found that the book got pretty bulky and was putting pressure on the spine. One solution is to remove about half or even more of the pages to allow for that expansion.

If you don’t want a huge alligator mouth, this is the time to remove a page or two from each of the signatures. Just be sure as you tear one side out to remove the other half as well and you won’t have pages falling apart.
