Start with a scanner and some trash instead of skipping to Google and you will produce something far more unique. Ever notice everyone seems to use the same lame coffee cup stain you can get with a quick Google search? Do yourself a favor and don’t do the same.

I belive designers often gravitate to it as it allows them to mix in hands on mediums they are very comfortable with. Many of the examples in this case leverage the collage style as well so I have included this link out in that category as well.
