Hello and welcome back for another fun challenge this fortnight. Angela here, and I have to say your entries for the last challenge were all spectacular. All those beautiful colors and designs...Fabulous. We'll be back next week to announce the winner.
So now onto our new Challenge and the theme this fortnight is "Collage" Now don't let this scare you off. A Collage is an artistic composition of materials and objects pasted over a surface, often with unifying lines and color or in non definition terms it is a collection of images and/or items grouped together representing your artistic image on a subject or theme.
Now to further inspire you along I have created a tutorial showing how to create a collage background using the USARTQUEST Napkin Collage kit. Napkins are wonderful for collage as they will easily layer and allow you to create a variety of effects. Why not try it. You can find thetutorial here or by clicking the tutorials tab at the top of the page.
We would love to see your creations with your interpretation of collage. As ever, there's a £10 voucher to spend at The Stamp Man up for grabs for our winner! So come on and join in!
Now lets bring you some inspiration from the team....
