Hi! I made this card for today's ways to use it challenge: one piece of cardstock! I love using only one piece of cs for a card and often make CAS cards that way, so making a collage was a bit more difficult for me!
I decided to use a Tim Holtz mask, 2 background stamps from CHF, and 3 images from SU's elements of style set. I had some difficulty with the mask staying in place and keeping a uniform shape (uhmmm... I bet you knew that you can't use a heat gun without it curling up! I found that out the hard way! LOL) so it's kind of fuzzy in places. I heat embossed the backgrounds, and sprayed with glimmer mists before and after each spray.
TFL and have a day full of wonderful moments!

Gail, I think your card turned out perfectly.
I love how you bg ended up, I think it's surreal. The images just add to the glamor of your card.
Beautifully done. WOW!!

I so love the colors you've used in this beautiful collage - you really have stuck to the brief using one bit of card and it looks amazing. Makes me want to try a collage, I always shy away from trying, thinking I might make a mess of it - but I will try!!
