  • Hi everyone,
    This is my collage for week 24 of the challenge being hosted by Margarete Miller this year ( see below for details, if the #2024CW challenge is new to you and/or if you’re interested in taking part).
    The prompts set for the assignment this week were as follows:
    1. ‘Something from the recycle bin’ ~ I used the label from a tin of tuna.
    2. ‘A bottle or a glass’ ~ My choice was a bottle and more particularly, a
    bottle with a ship inside.
    3. ‘ A piece of wrapping paper’ ~ I like to wrap some of my presents in
    Mulberry Paper, because that and matching Avril Art Twine just looks
    so pretty as a parcel. I have a few sheets of very pale blue Mulberry
    Paper in my wrapping paper box, so I dug out a scrap of that to use.
    4. ‘ A favourite food’ ~ Fish, fish and more fish.... I love it... any kind and
    cooked in any way... just love it. It’s always the first thing I check out
    on the menu when we're dining out.
    5. ‘Text in a different alphabet’ ~ I went to my ‘go to’ book and pulled out
    some Asian text to play with. In the end I used both that book page
    and a couple of Asian washi stickers.
    Bonus: ‘3 of something’ ~ Three seagulls to perch on my floating bottle
    was my choice here.
    As always, thank you so much for watching and taking time out of your day to be with me. I hope you’ll join me again soon and liked what you saw me create today to hit Margarete’s assignment for this week..
    Hugs C xx

    Carol, this is lovely. I think all of your elements/prompts work very well together and the colors play off of each other wonderfully. The ocean/water theme is very pretty. I enjoyed watching you put this together. Your creative flow is very inspiring. Have a beautiful week and happy crafting. xx

    I really admire your ability to stay open to the process of your collage unfolding organically while simultaneously remaining so deliberate with your placements and aesthetic. And I love the images you have chosen. Another beautiful collage 💙

    • @oakhousejournals
      @oakhousejournals  Před měsícem

      I generally have an idea in mind but the collages always evolve as the prompt pieces suggest how they'll interact and where they'll sit. My eye (& I guess my slightly OCD nature 😄) always wants to ensure the placement is in the best 'line' for the aesthetics. Many a time I don't pick the best pieces and then I'm fighting to encourage them to 'play nicely' together.... it's all part of the fun of doing these collages for me. Definitely a journey and learning curve each time. Thank you so much for taking time out of your day to watch. That's kind of you. Hugs as always from me. C xx

      As soon as I read your comment Jennifer I thought " Goodness I really should Google any foreign text before I use it! " I haven't a clue what it says on this collage. BUT I'm guessing as it was a sticker it'll be ok 🤞 BIG hugs from me. C xx

      It is but actually it's quite cathartic decluttering and cleaning in readiness for the actual move itself. Oh that and learning patience. The whole process is so slow here in the UK. C xx

      @@oakhousejournals Yes I can see that. We have been in our house 27 years, I need to move just so I can be motivated to declutter. Patience is a virtue but I struggle with it.
