Prompt 6ix Meets the 1970's and Glue-it Tuesday...

I could not resist the Prompt 6ix Challenge this week, over at Daisy Yellow!  The guidelines for the challenge were as follows:

1. Graffiti
2. Pattern
3. No Words
4. Stapled Collage
5. Neon Pink
6. 1970's

The 70's was my decade, so it was really fun to recreate the feel of that time.  Here's what I came up with...
The photo of the graffiti'd building and the dancing woman are both from the internet.  The photo of Mick Jagger hangs in the Seattle Music Museum.  I took a photo of it when I was there. The rainbow is a separate piece of cardstock that I painted, cut out and glued onto the misted pink background. It was fun to have the "no words" guideline.  I pretty much always put words on my journal pages; so this was a new thing. 

This is also my submission for Artsyville's Glue-it Tuesday.

Thanks for visiting!  I'm so glad you stopped by!
