Over the weekend I was lucky enough to hit an auction and win a box of old compacts... I knew exactly what I was going to do with at least one of them as soon as I won them.
I instantly fell in love with the "Ladies Who Lunch" collage sheet when I first saw it. I knew I had to create some sort of collage using them. They were just too cool not to. Anyway, I thought they would fit in perfectly with the classy old compact. The background is one of the images from the sheet - "New York".
I also used a bit of sepia ink around the edges of each image; Brown Glass Glitter; Glitz Trims and a few of my own vintage buttons and alpha beads.
For complete information on how I made this collage feel free to check out this collage ~ Let's Do Lunch.

I am loving altering things currently so when replying to your comment you left ( and you have a lot of blogs to choose from, it is easier in that case to leave your WOYWW # so others can find you ) BUT I saw the AB site and came over here, will cruise around your blog a bit! It doesn't bother me that I didn't find your WOYWW post, I am happy here :) waving hi from the windy hills of North Carolina #50
