DIY COMIC COLLAGE SHOES - Marvel Scrapbooking Kit

 Hi everyone, When I first opened this kit, a crazy thought ran in my head!! And that thought was - Wouldn't it be awesome if I could collage shoes with these superhero papers? I felt brave enough to give it a try! So, I skipped out to K-mart and bought canvas shoes.  The first thing I needed to do was make a 1:1 mixture of PVA glue and water. Next, I unlaced my shoes and scrunched up some magazine and stuffed it into my shoe so that the canvas was stretched taut.

Use double sided tape and PVA glue to attach the second panel on top to make a pocket. Now repeat with the other 2 panels. You should now have 2 pockets. There is one more panel left over,...
