When I buy a paper pack there are always pages I don’t like. I use them as bases so they don’t go to waste. I have to say I’ve never needed to make more scrap on purpose. Scraps are randy little buggers as they seem to propagate all on their own.

@roxycreations679 3 года назад

That's a great way to use them up!

@nellsinnock867 3 года назад

Oh my goodness, collage is my ABSOLUTE favorite thing to do with paper!!! I would have to say that 3 qualities you have to possess or learn are: bravery, patience and flexibility. Also, you can't be married to anything preconceived, in my experience. And know when to stop.... :-)

@jancrittenden132 3 года назад

good points!!!!! Thanks

@roxycreations679 3 года назад

Totally agree!

I could listen to you and watch you collage for hours, days even! Thank you for doing this video. It really helped me. I'm one of those small pieces of paper first and never knew why I got so frustrated. I never wanted to cover those bits up so I'd quit. You are a tremendous help Rachel . Love, Jan from the USA

@roxycreations679 3 года назад

Oh yay! I hope you can get going now. let me know how it works for you! Thank you so much!

@kathrynhelm4176 3 года назад

Those were great guidelines for collaging. We’ve probably all heard each of these points from you at various times but to get them all at the same time in sequence is much appreciated. Glad you were able to touch base with Sarah.🥰❤️

@1jmass 3 года назад

This is one of my favorite videos you have shared, and considering how much fun and informative they all are, that is truly saying something good. It does help when steps or guidelines are given, to include an example or two. I am so visual, that the old saying about “one picture is worth 1,000 words” definitely applies to me. Thanks for sharing info as well as bringing a bit of laughter into our day.

@donnakennedy87 3 года назад

Rachel, thankfully collaging has always come naturally to me even though I'd never seen or heard guidelines before. You have given me a new way to think about what I'm doing and your guidelines are very helpful. Thank you for sharing your expertise with all of us. Donna, in California.

@roxycreations679 3 года назад

I didn't really have guidelines when I started these are just things I noticed i always think about. It's hard for some people so I wrote them down as they came to mind to gather them into one spot. Thank you so much!

@Shane-us4ks 2 года назад

That was a great video, thank you Rachel. As you were chatting I wrote the 10 tips in my Collage notebook. Organise the papers is the most important for me! I made a great very long collage Masterboard after watching your video. I love it so much I don’t want to cut it up! I think they are wonderful for cutting out large tags etc. So thank you!🧚‍♀️✨💫

What a joyful project! This was especially good as it was more than ideas and techniques. When you mentioned your Sis and Mom, I was so touched. You are so lucky to have them in your life...I miss my Mom and Sis. I love when art also deeply touches my spirit. It inspires me to my core. Thank you.

I am floored at how much help this has been to me!! I’ve always struggled with collage, but this really made sense. I think one big problem for me has been that all my papers are together, so I get hung up with using the wrong thing first and then bumfoozled all around. Thanks again for sharing your process so concisely!

@roxycreations679 3 года назад

@donnajoseph2004 3 года назад

This is the best explanation of collage "how-to" I've found. Before I took up journal making I didn't give collage a single thought. But seeing how much it gets used in JJ world, I have struggled to understand the how and the why. Thank you for this clear and detailed explanation of the collage process. I've been trying my hand at it lately. While I think I may be improving, these tips will surely help! The summary at the end was helpful too. Thanks, Rachel! ~Marci 🥰

Hello Rachel, loved this video. I do struggle to get a cohesive look to my collaging, so your tips were invaluable. Thank you for putting this video together and sharing with us. I know it is an "oldie" but have been going back to the more "older" ones. Am enjoying them just as much. Love what you do and love how you explain, so down to earth and sometimes so funny, you have a "fan" for as long as you put up videos. I learn sooooooo much from you. Thank you my Italian Australian friend. Blessings from Cape Town Diana
