by Randel Plowman
By now it's clear that I'm nuts for the collage work of Randel Plowman. I discovered his pieces on his popular site A Collage A Day where, for the past six years, Randel has been creating - you guessed it - a collage a day. If you've been following me for a while, you'll remember that I've featured his unique collage pieces and images of his studio. I really like his style.

Randel Plowman, A Collage A Day
I was thrilled that Randel recently offered a signed copy of his new book, The Collage Workbook, as a giveaway on a perfect gray. Now, I'm gonna be honest, here. I really don't want to part with this book. It's packed with great ideas and techniques on making collages and it even contains an image library that can easily be copied and used in your own collages.

This is a great book - full of inspiring images of Randels work plus tips for your own pieces.
My sincere thanks to Randel for offering this giveaway.

Oh.... so excited about your giveaway! I have adored working with paper and images since I was a little girl. My mother even found a card I made her that just cracks my up.

Amazing work...and if I don't win, I'll probably buy it anyway :)
Oh thanks so much for a chance to win this book! I'd love to have it....I'm just now really starting to play with collage and I'm loving it. I even picked up two 1962 catalogs (Sears and Montgomery Wards) at an antique fair yesterday. lol
Great offer! I also have followed Randel's work for years (he even commented on one of my collages on my blog, Collagitation!) He's awesome! You can find my blog at:
