VIDEO: Halloween Collage & New Collage Workshop!

Howdy friends! If you've followed my lives for a while, you KNOW I love collage! And today I am SUPER excited to announce two things. I have moved all my online classes to a new website. Over the past two years, I've used Facebook for my online workshops and classes, but that no longer feels like a good option to me, for lots of reasons I'll save for another day. 

So I'm adding my back-catalog of classes slowly on the new site, but today I've added a new collage class that I'm really excited about! In college art classes and art history classes I first got bit by the collage bug. My art teacher had us spend several weeks on surrealism and we did a lot of surrealist collage, which is something I do almost weekly - and do not publish. I just do it for my own enjoyment, and now I'm sharing that with you! So the new class has NINE lessons and you will learn how to organize your supplies, learn basic collage skills, learn surrealist collage, tips, techniques, and finally an advanced painting style of collage. 

My other previous classes that are there - so please be sure you haven't already taken those before registering :). Here is my classroom!

So to celebrate my new collage class, I have a collage video for you today with a fun Halloween vibe.

I used two vintage Halloween books - this one and this one - for the skeleton, Raven and the Poe sheet. 

I accented the skelly with ultra fine gold glitter.

In the video, you'll see me have some fun with a beautiful wax stamper as well - I was going to use it on the card but ended up not having room.

Fun, right? Here's the video


I hope you join me in an online class soon!

Loveyameanitbye.

  1. Hello, Lydia. I started my crafting adventure making collages but since I started making cards, my collage stuff has been just hanging around. I didn't think about combining the two (head slap)! BTW one of my favorite Poe quotes is "There is no beauty without some strangeness." 🤔
