These three photos are the different angles to a piece I made using my "Penelope" collage. The best thing about making these collages I've been working on, is that you can copy them, reduce them and incorporate them into anything and everything you make. They go great in journals, you can cut them up into strips, I could even print them up as collage sheets and sell them. But I'm not up to that task yet. Marsha over at TumbleFish just finished making several collage sheets and it sounds like it takes a bit of time. But her work is so awesome, I think it will be well worth it because everyone is going to want to buy them.
At any rate, I've made about four of these colored collages now with an image of a woman in the middle and I'm currently working on three more. They are all different colors and the one I'm currently working on is the cream colors, ivory and whites. Then after that I will be doing one with kind of a red, white and blue color theme, and finally I will be doing one that has all different colors of orange.
But I liked how this frame turned out. This is a reduced version of the collage inside the frame. I believe my friend Laura Haviland over at creativewhispers7.com has one of these that I made for her?
