Composition for Collage

After hearing the rave review for this class over on Jenny's blog I thought I would give it a try to see if it got me inspired to do a bit of papercrafting (am so worn out from knitting/crocheting flowers at the moment!) - I thought I wouldn't be able to as the registration date had expired but I clicked buy and it all worked ok.

Have watched the first two weeks lessons this afternoon and managed to knock out this pretty quickly:


Don't ask me why I did a winter composition in summer as I really don't know!  The class has lots of pictures to print out but I am having printer issues at the moment so just used some bits and pieces I had to hand - I have to admit that this is the first time I have actually used all the stamps apart from the santa sleigh, same goes for the Tim Victorian Carollers die and distress markers! oh well I knew they would get used eventually!

I so enjoyed putting all this together just for the fun of it that I then knocked out this composition in about a further 20 minutes:


Whoo hoo - looks like my mojo has finally returned!  I think that the lamp post could do with a bit of something either flowers or stamped images so I might change it later.  Am now off to do week two.....

Thanks for looking - busy compositioning from Solihull
