One Little Word July 1st Blog Hop starts 11am ET

Illuminate
Thank you for stopping by!  Ali's prompt for June turned in to a fun and messy project!  We were asked to make a series of multimedia canvases.  It was up to us to choose how we wanted to do them in terms of ourselves and our word.  My word is Illuminate and I tried to reflect that in my 9 little canvases.  I had the opportunity to use some products that I hadn't had a chance to use yet - its alway fun when you can use stuff from your stash! 
In June I was also taking Claudine Hellmuth's Composition for Collage class and found that my 9 little canvases collectively made a grid compositional structure for collage!  So in the photos below you will see the canvases as a collage and also as they look in my One Little Word album.

  4. Beautiful looking collage :) I'm really drawn to the yarn/string in the upper right corner. Looks like wheat. I don't knw why, but I like it.

    Hope I'll be back in the hop next month!

  6. Lynn, really great work this month. I love how each of your canvases has its own special element but the grouping is a huge success as a collage. I just love it!
