Collage Wednesday #5

Example

I made it! It is still Wednesday, 10:47 pm to be exact, and I am posting my Wednesday collage. I'm excited to say my idea worked. Having a Collage Wednesday motivated me to create a new collage....even though it is way past my bedtime. You can see that I have been busy making a mess of my desk... digging through all my old and new scraps.

Here is the result.
Example

I'm not happy with how the Modge Podge is working. It is making the pieces wrinkle... I will have to try something else. I think I knew this already...but in my rush to get something done I obviously didn't think hard enough.

Thanks to my friend Shaili who commented on my previous entry. I've tried to express my internal conflict about my interest in design before but either no one seemed interested or I never really felt understood. Thank you so much Shaili, you totally got it! Your words were very inspiring. I already feel a weight lifted off my shoulders. =)

I like this one. Have you named it yet?

Thanks! I'm glad you like it. The outside green part is left over from Leigh's wedding invitations. That's why you can see a huge stack on my desk. I think I'll name this one "fish bowl".

I like this one best of the collages you've posted so far. The overlapping curves work really well. Looking forward to seeing what you come up with next!

Rubber cement because it's not wet, but I haven't ever realy figured out anything that sticks well long-term. Maybe make sure and cement both sides....

I LOVE the collage!
