The Ways to Use It challenge this week was to create your own collage. I knew I wanted to try it as I love seeing collage cards but haven't felt comfortable creating them myself.
I used the script background stamp to cover the card front and followed that with stamping using Timeless Textures and the floral image from Tea Shoppe in both Pool Party and Bermuda Bay inks. I stamped my focal image in Island Indigo and then added sponging around the edge of the card front in Bermuda Bay.
The sentiment is put together using "hope your day is" from And Many Mower with "tea"rific from Morning Cup. I added a few sequins and rhinestones and then popped up the sentiment.
Thank you for this challenge, Sabrina, it was just the push I needed. It took me out of my comfort zone and I like the results.
Thanks for looking!

Great job on this....I like that you used different shades of the same color. The script bg goes really well with the other stamps you chose for your collage. And who doesn't love a teacup...I know I do!

Love the colours! I buy very little DP these days but couldn't resist since a while back which looks quite like your background. Timeless Textures is a super set for a collage background. I'm glad you had fun...and of course you are happy with the result; it looks great.
