Collage techniques

We’ve explored lots and lots of fun collage techniques here on Layers Upon Layers. I figured it was past time to compile some of the methods. This post doesn’t include all fo the techniques like image transfers and making background papers…those posts have been compiled elsewhere! You can always find an up-to-date list in the Pages section of the right-hand sidebar.
