Collage.. again….:)

Hiya sistahs!

Well I have been hibernating and creating and trying to make some of da stampies come to life.. I have also been working with 2 FABBY DABBY DEELISH new artists who will blow your socks off.  I am hoping to have some images for our impending release… bwahahahaha…. it’ll shock ya.

Ok so today is a blechy day.. cloudy.. sad…just yuck.  I ran out to surprise my kidlets with a Mcdonalds lunch at school.. and now I am back, I took a picture of my collage and just feeling inspired.

In this collage I used some patterned paper (my mind’s eye) which we are sold out of.. and the collage was inspired by the little stamp you see in there.. I dunno.  Something told me I had to use it..LOL.. It is Claudine’s little mailbox featured in her NEIGHBORHOOD set..  it’s such a little part of the set but I dunno.. it called my name.  I just love it.  I also used our SOLID FUNKY DANDELION stamp.  I just love that stamp.. I used it here as tree.. a lollipopish type of tree.. anyone see the LORAX?  I loved those trees..

I also typed on my new OLLLLLD typewriter the word “hoping” on a tag and sewed all over the place leaving the threads exposed…  I guess it’s how i feel sometimes?  exposed… I am always hoping .. and that little tiny mailbox is how it all started.  When I collage, I really like to tell a story.. or reflect a little piece of me in there…  I also used crayons and a big fat graphite pencil to make my marks.. and VOILA.  a piece of me on a teeny canvas.. (Uch I wish the WHOLE me would fit on that canvas..LOL!)

Is there a particular image that inspires you these days?  birdcages? animals? retro ?  what inspires you?

Hope you are having a creative day

mwah mwah mwah
