Cool Girl Boots Style Challenge #2- COLLAGE

[jennamelia]

Hey Girls- Next in line is Collage style. When I think collage, Kathryn Balint is the first name that comes to mind. I was looking for just one example in her gallery but it's so good that I'm just gonna post the link and you can browse it.

[Valgal]

omg girl, you have just created a monster by showing me that girls designs. I'm swooning!

[sinead]

Thanks for the new challenge! This one's going to be tough for me! Definitely outside my comfy slipper zone!

[Charla]

Thanks! This is pulling me WAY out of my comfort zone, too.

On with the fun boots :D

[ccouch]

what fun! her gallery is awesome! this will certainly be getting me out of my comfy slippers!

[~ashleigh]

what a fun challenge! I hope I can grab some scrappin' time to try it out.

[chloe]

That's gonna be fun, I'll definitely have to try this one out!

[Charla]

That was awesome, scary, took forever, and was over way too fast ;)

I may try this again, just because it was so different. :) I was so inspired by her gallery, as well as by the placemat at Bob Evan's Restaurant last night (they had something like the drawing with words, and the color picture in the corner)

Here it is: {words} (http://www.thedigichick.com/gallery/showphoto.php/photo/43201/ppuser/5710)

I think I like it!

[jennamelia]

All right, here's my attempt at collage. I figured it's supposed to be a little messy and have a lot of stuff going on... so what better subject than my DD doing art projects. lol!

This is a challenging style... It seemed like SO MANY elements to use. It kind freaked me out :) but I think I like it.

[Charla]

I agree, Jenna. It was hard figuring out how to add more. And realistic elements seem to be important, which narrowed things down some since I don't usually collect that kind of thing. But it was so much fun :) I was thinking it would be fun to try again, using some of my pictures from Turkey :)

[Deena]

OHHH this is a good challenge, i really need to take the time to do these :)

Kathryn's Gallery rocks, and so do her designs!

I'm loving all the layouts everyone's making. So different from how most of us usually scrap, but so much fun to actually do!

[noralong]

It is so funny to me to see this thread! I just made my first real attempt at this style just 2 days ago! Here (http://www.thedigichick.com/gallery/showphoto.php/photo/43352/ppuser/316) is mine!

[noralong]

I forgot! I was going to say that I love Kathryn Balint! I have been snagging her stuff for quite a while now! Love, love, love all the vintage stuff!

[jennamelia]

Nora! There you are! I was just thinking today that I hadnt seen you around the boards in awhile.... :)

[hollyrh]

I haven't had time to jump in on these challenges yet, but just wanted to say everyone is doing such creative LOs!
Kathryn's stuff is great... here's an old one I did basically scraplifting one of her kit previews!
