You may remember, this challenge consists of five prompts plus a bonus prompt. I listed the prompts because some of the collages seem a little wacky unless you know what the prompts are.
So here we go with #15
1. A stamp or seal impression
2. Something that flies
3. Something found in a kitchen
4. A piece of wrapping paper with bright colors
5. A photograph of a landmark.
6. Bonus: An interesting texture.
It is a bit hard to see but there is a bird in flight on the reflective circle and it is embossed so that covers prompt 1 & 2, The rocket flying upwards doubles up on prompt 2. The background paper is actually gift wrap. You see a small bit of what is a large world map. The second circle behind the embossed circle is the textured piece. The unevenness comes from strips of what seems like a very thin wood strips randomly scattered in the paper.Number 16
1. Something that makes you happy
2. A form
3. Text in a language foreign to you
4. A geometric design
5. Something outdated
6. Bonus: A sticker
The something that makes me happy is: making these collages. The sticker is the scissors. The rest of the prompts should be easy enough to identify.Number 17
1. A ladder or steps
2. Aged or discolored paper
3. Something reflective
4. A quote or a line of text from a poem
5. A photograph of a crowded place in the world
6. Photograph: Graph paper
Number 18
1. An instrument with keys
2. Handwriting from a journal or a letter
3. patterned washi tape
4. Piece of striped paper or fabric
5. An image of a window or arch
6. Bonus: hole reinforcer
The handwriting was the first layer and as so often happens it gets buried by the other elements but there are bits sticking out from behind the stained glass window. I skipped the bonus prompt. This is one of my favorites. I used a photograph of a stained glass window that I took in a London church.1. Picture of an animal in motion
2. Decorative element
3. Photo of reflection in water
4. Something that starts with "P."
5. A picture of a book or stack of books
6. Bonus: A clipping of a headline in Serif font
The brand is not the headline specified in the prompts but I chose to use the circle with the brand in a Serif font instead. I needed something for the horse to walk on so I added the foreground. I know "pony" is a bit of a stretch for the word "p" but close enough for me. My decorative element is a jewel on the harness where it crosses the horse's forehead. Since I implemented the bonus, I was allowed to skip another prompt. I thought about using the pocket with a magazine cover for the fifth prompt but it really distracted from the rest of the collage so I left it off. (Shown below)
I am currently two weeks behind on circle prompts and a week behind on the ABC and Full deck challenge so I will be back with another post when I have completed those.
