Magazine Collage Pages With Cool Extra Bits!
Here are some examples of how I added extras to the collage art to make it more interesting…
The Cocktail Girls
There are so many fun details in this piece, but honestly I love the cranberries that I used as a sparkly middle filler!
Get the Cocktail girls in my Etsy Shop!
Curly Gurly
I used the inspiration of the curly foliage to make the lady's hair… all the round shapes just make my heart so happy!
Diamond Tummy
For this one I cut up a bunch of gold medallions and scattered them around the page… just adding a bit of interest to an otherwise boring border!
Made Woman
Here is where I used the plate trick to add interest to the background like in the video! There is also a cool pile of raw pearls at the bottom of the image!
In Hair Style
This is the funniest example ever of funny bits… those extra gals in the holes in her hair make her super fun!
Mouse Cat
This is where I talked about taking some of the collections and adding them as an element to your collage art! How fun are those little mousies?
Godzilla
This is a super great example of how I take round things and make them an interesting part of the collage art piece!
