Inspiration

Photo Details

Poster: BarbieP

I finally got a chance to play in the IC364 Challenge. Today, Stephanie gave us a great site for inspiration, and I chose this image for mine:

http://gelaskins.com/store/Stretched...lora_and_Fauna

I have never made my own collage, but I did today. The background is a collection of 4 different stamps with one additional silhouette in the foreground. I distressed the edges and sponged to give a vintage look.

Thanks again, Stephanie, for this wonderful site. And thanks for all who stop by and take a look. Appreciate it

This is gorgeous - you should DEFINITELY do more collages as you are a natural at them. I love this!

I think Gelaskins should hire you, Barb. I like yours better than the inspiration piece! Beautiful colors and images for this striking card.

You did an absolutely bang up job of making a collage. It's perfect! I love the silhouette stamping too!
