(Torn card stock and clippings from an old calendar)
I decided to play around with some card stock that was originally intended to be used in a scrapbooking project. So I ripped out a few pages that struck my fancy and began tearing the paper every which way. Once I had unleashed all my pent up hostility on the card stock. I laid the pieces out in a hodgepodge fashion. I didn't put too much thought into this. What it basically boiled down to was slapping some glue on the back and sticking it in a vacant space on the page.
When I finished this I was quite pleased with my handiwork, but I felt it needed more. I had noticed in some of the examples that Ludwig provides there was a hint of text. So I began the hunt for written words, I finally came across an old shoe calendar I had and in it was a mini-introduction. It was perfect. But then I thought...you know what would be more perfect? Add one of the shoes! I was a genius. I spent the next half an hour rummaging through the calendar to find the proper shoe. I had lots of choices, but I finally chose one with a nice color and gigantic purple flower. One can never go wrong with a gigantic purple flower.
I pasted my new loot on to the page and voila- Art! It was so much easier than I thought it would be. I couldn't wait to try something else!!
