LITTLE YELLOW BIRD COLLAGE ART

RedBrownBird

I can’t seem to get enough of birds these days.  I love it  when I’m sitting by the window and see the cardinals eating the dried seed heads in the garden, or hear the nightingales singing in the trees.  A few times this summer, when I was awake in the middle of the night, I’d hear one lone nightingale off somewhere in the dark singing its beautiful song.  Lovely.  I guess I’ve gotten to that age where these simple things make me smile.  Along those lines, I offer this collage.

FLOWER BASKET COLLAGE ART

FlwrBsktPrintFinally back at work on some new collages.  This is a digital piece, all done on the computer, using much of the old books pages, letters and images I’ve been collecting and scanning.  The flower basket is a black and white image that I hand colored.  Hope you like it!   Oh, and I’m having some blank notecards made with this design, as well as an 8″ x 10″ print ready for framing – they’ll be available for sale soon.

FABRIC BITS NOTE CARDS

Going through my bins of fabric today, it occurred to me that sewing together some little scrappy bits and attaching them to card stock would make cute note cards.  And writing a few encouraging words, or a funny Mae West quote (“too much of a good thing is wonderful”), would give them some more interest.  The text from a book on the green linen fabric just struck my funny bone and could certainly be used to describe me too many times!
