Hello LMAC and Hive members. I wanted to share with you my Entry #3 collage for this LMAC Round 221. My theme entails a snowman enlisting the help of a child and others to display the spirit of Christmas.
@shaka, now holds a monthly contest with participants having the ability to submit multiple entries during that month for consideration. If you'd like to join in this monthly round for December with a due date of December 30, end of day (midnight UTC), visit: Let's Make a Collage - A Contest for All Creatives on Hive - Round 221 - ✨100 HIVE in the Prize Pool!.
To design my collage, I utilize Canva to blend the different type images. Below are my steps in which I begin with a blank, white canvas, then added layers of elements, removing backgrounds, resizing, duplicating, colorizing, and repositioning items as needed incorporating the tools at my disposal in my Annual Pro Membership Subscription.
I considered the elements used to depict the holiday in preparing my design. Children giving and receiving gifts. Definitely a snowman if one is possible to be constructed if you live in a region where snow falls.
Or, in the alternative, you can purchase any size ready-made plastic snowmen to display in your yard. Finally, ornaments fir or pine trees to decorate with adorable ornaments.
Not to be left out is the wintry environment. My pure fractal I created in the advanced fractal rendering program, Apophysis 7X, added a touch of color to the scene. Below are the images I included in my design:
