Peace collage

Photo Details

Poster: blessingsX3

So I spent this past weekend with one of my best friends, Korin AKA sweetnsassystamps, and she taught me how to make a collage. It seemed like it should be an easy thing to do but not for me who tends to lean towards clean lines lol. Anyway, after several failed attempts, this is what I came up with. All edges were distressed with scissors and sponged. I actually kinda like it and may be willing to try it again sometime :). Thanks for looking!

All images are from Sweet N Sassy stamps

You did a wonderful job with the collage! It's not an easy thing to do, as I have found out for myself! I love the papers and colours you used and also the little bit of lace and the pearls!

It looks fabulous Janette! Love the papers, the distressing... the vintage ornament is just perfect! The lace piece and pearls are the perfect embellishments.
