Theme: Off to Collage - No I am not sending you to school but thought it might be fun this month to make a collage. You can use any substrate such as canvas, corrugated cardboard, wood, or canvas boards for instance and add any items to it as long as you include some stamping and/or stenciling.
Here's what I did with this theme.... I decided to make a wedding card for my friend who gets married later in the year.
I used stencilling as part of my creation - here's how I made it....
I started with a piece of heavy media card and added paste through a stencil (Sheena douglass) to create some background texture.
Next I added a tando clock and lace and buttons and then gessoed over everything to make it white.
Finally I added some haematite inka gold using my finger to the raised parts of the collage then added the word joy and the paperdoll image. I mounted this on a mat and then onto a card. Simple and fun! I hope you like it! If you need anymore inspiration please hop over to the stampsandstencils post - this is where you can link up too.
