Dawn McVey is hosting this week’s Make It Monday and she has challenged us to create a stamped collage. Even after watching
the video a few times, I wasn’t quite sure how to tackle this. I wish that Dawn
had shared a few more of her tricks with us as she made her fabulous card. It
could be that there were more suggestions in the video, but my very stuffy head
made it difficult for anything to be absorbed. (The allergy season seems to
have started early here. Ugh.)
When starting this card, I knew that I wanted to make a
birthday card and include elements from this tag by Nichole Heady. (It’s the second project.) I pulled out all of my PTI
birthday stamp sets along with other sets that would work in a collage and got
to stamping.
While uploading my photos, I came across another collage
card that I had made for my daughter to send her an iTunes gift card. It
appears that I lean toward neutrals with a single color pop when stamping
collages.
We are in the midst of some gorgeous spring weather, so it’s
time for me to go out and do some yard work. Hope you have some sunshine in
your world today.
