Challenge

Hello everyone! Celine here to challenge you this week!
Supplies: Asterisks (Autumn Press); Labels (Memoir); Houses (Memoir); Plano (Classic Calico); Die Cut Tags (Classic Calico); Chipboard Butterflies (Classic Calico); Kraft stars (Classic Calico); Alpha Stickers (Autumn Press); Rose Bud (Autumn Press); Bundle (Autumn Press); Label Stickers (Autumn Press); Butterflies stickers (Autumn Press)

I've been inspired to create tiny collages as embellishments these days and I truly encourage you (I mean, CHALLENGE YOU!) to create your own! Don't be scared : it's easier than it seems! Simply pick a bunch of small embellishments that you like. Here, I chose Studio Calico chipboard and veneer embellies and added stickers, fabric, felt and sewed everything together!

Work on a small surface : a tag, a chipboard, an ATC. Then glue, punch, sew, paint, mist : it's easy, fast and looks great in the end! What you can do is create several collages like this and pick the ones you wanna use on your layout later on!

On my layout, I simply glued the ones that I created and have a bunch left, for future projects!
Those small collages bring interest, depth and texture to any project : cluster them all together and you won't need much on your layout!

Link us up to your layout using my challenge by Monday, December 27 for your chance to win a SC GC! Have fun!

It's pretty basic -- but it counts, I guess! I do think quite a bit, makes things more interesting!
