Collage Challenges 17 & 18

After finishing these two collage pages, I am officially caught up on Margarete Miller's 5-Prompt Collage Challenge. This week is the 19th collage!


Collage #17



Prompts:

1) something red (papers, stamp, flower, hearts, red foil candy wrapper)
2) two of something (2 J's, Jacks, large hearts, small hearts)
3) something that points or is pointing (hand)
4) piece of envelope either side (red patterned lining, upper right corner)
5) kraft or brown paper (pc. of brown paper bag in background)
Bonus: sticker (ticket upper left; postmark, upper right; white ticket, lower right)


Collage #18




Prompts:

1) something sticky (frosting on bundt cake)
2) something you can wear (clothes on magazine page model)
3) a favorite word (beauty)
4) piece of coloring book page (upper right corner)
5) something with paint or ink (background pages gel printed and stenciled)
Bonus: zigzag (pink and blue rick rack)


For this page I first gessoed and watercolored over the catalog page so I wouldn't have to 
completely cover with papers. I like the irregular edges with the watercolor peeking around.
