Collage 365: I'm mad, mad, mad about paper. After years of writing, I'm now storytelling through daily collage making. I rely on used materials from antique/vintage images & ephemera to found & recycled objects.

Beatrice and Amy Were Seasonal Milliners Extraordinaire
I thought I ought to get this fashionable pair posted before autumn slips away. Bea and Amy were part of a trio found in Godey's Lady's Book. The paper is so thin and the letterpress printing so heavy that the music on the page behind them shows through - instantly creating another layer. The hats are composed of flowers from recycled greeting cards and wallpaper. The cameos and hat pin are from a vintage bead catalog. 5" x 5" on archival mat board. [Not for sale]
