Dina Wakley Cropped Faces Journal Spread by Megan Whisner Quinlan

Megan Whisner Quinlan shares a fun way to crop stamped images that will give a new look to your journal pages as she creates a monochromatic spread using Dina Wakley MEdia Stamps, Stencils, Ledger Pages and Paint.

Instructions 

Don’t let the art supplies be the boss of you! Just because an image looks one way when stamped, doesn’t mean you can’t break up the image and use it in different ways. Follow along to create some fun on your journal pages with cropping images.
