This makes a great image; somehow soothing.

I haven't done in quite a while, but I used to do a collage-a-day in this visual diary.

SusuPetal:
Yes! Lucky for those of us who do so enjoy food! :)

I love using stamps in collages. It makes them worldly somehow ;)


I love the Parker quote you just left on my blog. My husband interviewed him many years back and really had nice things to say about him. He took his death to heart.

I hope you're staying cool Mick!!

Back when I was creating a collage-a-day I used stamps often if for different reasons.

Robert B. Parker is on the Top 5 list of my personal favorite storytellers. He's going to be sorely missed.

Cool? Not likely, we're in the middle of the Dog Days of summer ... as are you I suspect. :)

I love that grey image with the man and the birds that you've used. So very intersting to see real paper collage here on your blog. Another serving please!

I like it too and decided to print it out on an old letter; received from whom, I can no longer recall. As for more of my real paper collage? I think I can accommodate. Watch this space! :)
