As I continued to create more collages, I started to create and experiment with varying compositions and techniques/materials. As before I used envelopes and found images from magazines. However I started to use different size and shape of envelopes, not just A4/A5 and rectangular, but bigger and smaller and square. I also wanted to incorporate stitch into my work. To this I used back thread to start stitching into my collage. I did this instead of using masking tape to secure the images down, not only did it secure my work, it also added detail, interest and texture to what was a completely flat and smooth collage. This actually worked better than I had thought it was going to, and it was really easy to stitch.
