For lesson eight, we were to take the bright colored background and integrate the vintage sepia image to make it more compatible with the colored background.
Here is my finished piece:
Even though I don't dislike the bright colors; I do prefer to use softer, more vintage-like colors when making a collage with vintage images.
Mary will be introducing a new online venture for 2011, which will be the Green Paper Collage Club. Check out her blog for the details.
Have a great weekend!

Like you, I wouldn't naturally put such bright colours with a sepia vintage image - BUT this really works for me, so that's taught me something!! She's a real sweetie, isn't she?!
I'm looking forward to doing Mary's new Collage Club too.

I love this cute little girl. So well done.
Love seeing how you and creativelenna take the lessons and do your own thing! I'm really looking forward to the Green Paper collage Club!!
I wasn't nuts about it in the first picture, but the addition of some gesso or whatever you used, plus the other elements makes it work pretty well. Still not my favorite way to go but a good exercise in working outside your comfort zone. I have my backgrounds pasted up but haven't gotten any further.
Thanks for your visit and sweet words Joy! Love your collage work!! I'm off to check out Mary's club!

Really informative blog post here my friend. I just wanted to comment & say keep up the quality work. I’ve bookmarked your blog just now and I’ll be back to read more in the future my friend! Also well-chosen colors on the theme it goes well with the blog in my modest opinion :).
This looks like comment spam (anonymous, no substantive connection between the text of the comment and the text of the post), but I can't for the life of me figure out what USE it would be to the spammer. Sherwani
