Weekend Collages

I worked on some collages this weekend - Saturday was a good creative day.  This first collage is in my "Showbook" - an altered books I've designated for remembering the shows that I've gone to - a place to put the ticket stubs and programs - other than in a box.
A couple of weeks ago we went to the Edmonton Symphony playing Gershwin and Denzal Sinclaire was the vocalist.  We've heard him before - he's awesome!  Very reminiscent of Nat King Cole!


This image I found in a magazine while I was in Houston at Stampin'Up! leadership.  I loved his jacket and knew I wanted to collage with him.  Yellow is not a favourite colour of mine - but I like how the page turned out.  Sorry it's a bit blurry!  The page is in my "paper bag book" - believe me - paper bags are a bit difficult to do collaging on - but I imagine once I work on the backside the whole page will be firmer.

I also created this cover for a new book I'm going to put together this week which will hold pages that I have done with my gelli plate.  It's going to be a wonderfully chubby little book!

I didn't get any doodling done yesterday - so I will probably make up for it today.
Have a good one!
Joan
