Boom! One pile of words.
I have been working on my organization of collage supplies. I have a stack of magazines that I look through regularly, but sometimes I cut out elements that I feel I am more likely to use if I separate them from their source. Or sometimes it is just time to pare down my collection, so I remove the last few images or words from my sources before moving the to the recycling. I recently picked up some clear zippered folders to keep my clipped items sorted roughly by theme. The pile of words is about a third of what is in my text folder. Sometimes I pour through the text collection, hoping something will suggest a theme for images that can be matched with it. "Try Old Golds" called for my attention this time.
But where are the Old Golds, or who should try them? Let's find a place for this to happen, shall we?
Looks great, but I want to get further mix-y. Let's see if we can separate the mountains from the sky.
Nice. Now for some Old Golds. Or Old Gods. Oh look, some terrifying monsters I have been saving!
Let's kick up the menace just a teeny bit.
I feel like that looks pretty good. I sort of want to add more, but I know I am close to the end. I have this Humongous Fungus text that seems like it could add to the piece.
I cut out some more text, and then, as I am quite lucky to be able to do, I enlisted Jen's help, showing her the design with and without the block of fungus block. Jen has talked me out of "one last thing" numerous times. Many of my best cards relied on her eye for design.
Jen said nope, so I just glued everything into place, leaving off the fungal flavor.
