On Her Travels Doing Life | LMAC FreeStyle Collage No. 146

Hello LMAC and Hive members. I wanted to share with you my current freestyle collage. My theme entails a female who considers herself a world traveler. She's visited famous sites. Met famous and not-so-famous individuals. Glimpsed historical wonders of the world. And experienced all that each country has to offer society. She called it "doing life".

Now that's an awesome way to look at doing whatever pleases you.

My style of collage is a Freestyle. Although I usually do, I wasn't required to utilize any contest photo in my design. However, if you'd like to join in the current contest, visit: Let's Make a Collage - A Contest for All Creatives on Hive - Round 243 - ✨35 HIVE in the Prize Pool!.

In preparing my theme, I considered including the current LMAC Contest photo, which was actually utilized as a previous contest image in Round 186. A barren landscape, I decided to include it as one of the destinations that the female traveler visited, such as Easter Island, Petra, Machu Picchu, The Colosseum, Taj Mahal, Nasca Lines, and Great Pyramid of Giza to name a few.

Adding several images from the LMAC LIL database, I transformed the site into a historical one with treasured monuments. Of course, the vehicle used in the last contest provided the means for visiting the destinations once she arrived in the various countries.

Below are the images I included to complete my theme:

I then utilized Canva to blend the different type images. Below are my steps in which I began with a blank, white canvas, then added layers of elements, removing backgrounds, resizing, detaching elements from their backgrounds, duplicating, colorizing, and repositioning items as required, incorporating the tools at my disposal in my Annual Pro Membership Subscription.

Below is my completed collage:

Thanks for your visit. I appreciate it. I hope you like my freestyle collage theme.
