JULYVSNY 5:45 Bonus Challenge - Collecting Collages
Welcome to the July VSN. To start the evening off, your goal is to
create a card with a collage background. There are so many things you
can do with collage and there is no right or wrong way to do it.
Collage is an artistic composition of materials and objects pasted
(in our case stamped) over a surface, often with unifying lines
and color.
Here are a few tips:
1. Stamp your lighter colors first and add the darker colors last.
2. Use words as well as object stamps.
3. Be random in your stamping.
Have fun and remember to put JULYVSNY in the keywords when you upload
so I can find your card for judging!

I COMPLETELY understand that.... At about 8:58 or so, your body will become numb!
I'm tense for you this time around!
Great challenge, Boulderstamper!

Here's the one I did. It was my first time, so I'm not sure if it's OK or not - but it was fun to make!
Well - it would help if I actually put the right link!:rolleyes:
