Teri Morse at Comfort Cottage posted her "life collage" a few weeks ago. I asked her if I could copy it and use it as an example in my workshops. She graciously said yes.
I gave the ladies instructions last week so they could gather materials to do the collage this week.
Oh my gosh, I love this! I completed mine today. Mine covers the last several years and the journey I have been on. I used images that I have previously used and well as journal pages. I then flipped through several magazines and cut out words that spoke to me. I loved the process and the outcome. Every time I look at it I see something more.
Teri thank you for letting me share this wonderful idea. It has been an amazing exercise to do.

I love this Mary!!! And, thank you so much for being such an awesome inspiration...and such a great support for me!! You are just an amazing person!!
Beautiful!! You're very talented Mary!
I am so happy that you had such a positive experience with your life board. I love that you had so much fun with it. It's absolutely gorgeous. It really is like a window into your soul - and it is very beautiful. It also deeply moves me that you did this project with your art journaling class. One of the most important things I want to do with my blog and my work is to inspire others in a positive way. You helped me to do that. I am so grateful to be connected with other artists this way. Blessings to you! Hugs, Terri
I so want to do this...
Fabulous piece.
