Graphics Fairy Collage Challenge for May 13, 2024 -- Madame Butterfly

Hello to everyone.  Once again I am late in posting our Graphics Fairy challenge cards for May 13, 2024.  Diana's is on the left, mine is on the right.  The challenge was Madam Butterfly.  

     

WHERE did the time go?

 Well, I missed posting for two weeks on Monday, but Diana and I did complete the Graphics Fairy's collage challenges for April 22nd and April 29th.  Once again, Diana's creations are on the left and mine are on the right.  Have a great day and let us know what you think!

Week 04/22/24  -  Kitchen Ephemera

                

Week 04/29/24  -- The Musician

               

Hi Everyone welcome back to our blog

In December I (Brenda) took a nasty fall and hit my head resulting in a concussion as well as messing up my shoulder.  The concussion took about 10 weeks to heal, my shoulder is a work in progress.  With the concussion I was unable to craft for more than five or ten minutes at a time, so I fell behind in creating and in posting.  But I am back up to speed and want to post what Diana and I have been doing since the first of January.

In January Diana and I agreed to participate in four different collaging challenges in 2024.  The first two collage challenges were for every day in January.  Whew, that was a LOT of creating in a short period of time, but we finished them.  We will be posting all 31 collages later this week for both challenges.

The other two collage challenges are weekly challenges.  The first is by Margarete Miller.  Margarete gives you six items each week and leaves it up to you to create a collage using your imagination.  You interpret what each item means to you.  Again, We will be posting these later this week or early next week.

The second weekly challenge is from Graphics Fairy.  If you are not familiar with Graphics Fairy, check them out.  You can subscribe to the store (for lack of a better word, lol) and receive weekly emails with their designs for that week AND you have access to all their designs provided over the years.  It is a wealth of images you can use to create your own designs in Photoshop Elements.

Posted below are the challenges for the year so far by month.  Diana's collage is shown first and mine is shown second.  We each used the file from Graphics Fairy for that week and came up with totally different collages.

As you can see, our cards are totally different, even when we used some of the same images.

We decided to make our collages on 4-3/4 x 6-3/4 playing cards, punch holes on each card with a Mini Cinch and will bind them altogether with binding wires at the end of the year.

We hope you enjoyed seeing our collages and hope you come back to see our new creations in the future.
