thanks all !

hechopormi: i cut up the sunday comics into irregular shapes, then put mod podge on both sides of the paper, then put it on the shoe, (the side i wanted facing up obviously). I overlapped the comics so they would cover up the pattern. After i got everything how i wanted, i put a layer of mod podge all over the shoe, waited for it to dry, and repeated 2 more times. I'm sure it would work with magazines. I hope this helped! If i didn't, you ould just google "how to mod podge canvas shoes" and i'm sure something will come up :D
