SPA Challenge-Travel


Here's my entry for SPA's challenge this week--Travel. I envisioned the "trip of a lifetime" for these vintage young women, and built my collage around their photo on the deck of their steamship.
The photo, I think, is from Artezine, which has quite a collection of snapshot photos of all kinds of things. All the other bits-travel posters, a timetable, leftover money and a souvenir charm bracelet-and backgrounds came from Google. It was quite like assembling a paper collage--cutting and pasting the pieces.
