This is another collage page in my Wanderlust journal,
prompted by Eliza's Art Jar on the new theme of Trees.
Be daring
My inspiration was a photograph of my Silver Birch tree.
I used Eliza's images from her collage collection,
(free when I purchased the online course at the Early Bird price).
The pages are from my Wreck This Journal book by Keri Smith.
The paper is quite thin, so today I printed my collages elements on
premium inkjet paper 160 gsm.
This thickness allows me to sand & distress the edges of each element,
whilst giving the collage page more strength.
I used a sanding block by PaperArtsy
& a Tim Holtz Paper Distresser by Tonic.
I also added a little black smudging
with a Stabilo All pencil.
