More Birds...

Duck Soup

La Vie Est Belle

or 'La vie en rose'....
this little creature is singing her lungs out, in fact she's singing the reds right out of the poppy!

Since only looking at the knife and scissors gives me the dermatitis I have to incorporate more painting and drawing. That's no problem for me because I have piles of images already cut out.

If we can do rain dances than it must be possible to do spring songs as well on this very stormy day
here in Holland ;))

Flower Girls

The woman dressed in a gown is from a wedding photograph.  She is exquisitely hand-colored.  Ballerina from a book about dance.

THEME: Free-For-All

Thanks for letting me pick themes for the month.  Now someone else must step up to bat! 

For the last theme I am picking a theme that a theme-picker might pick when they want everyone to just have a good old time and not think so hard...so I will bring back a theme I have always enjoyed: 

Free-For-All!  Anything goes.

"Gone Bird"

"Gone Bird"  (ha ha a play on the title "Gone Girl").  Those are all extinct birds that have disappeared off the face of the earth!  Starting with the large bird to the left of the pretty little girl who seems to be waving bye-bye is a Dodo.  Next is a reconstruction of a prehistoric bird called an Archaeopteryx (Jurasic period, about 135-181 million years ago).  A Carolina Parakeet is nibbling on the girl's hat.  And finally a Great Auk.

The Missing Link

A collage made from left over bits of other collages.

Till Houdini Turns Up

St. Francis Being Abducted by Aliens

We missed our flight back home

Appear or disappear .. that's the question.

I'm not sure if the men are searching for their ladies or if they try to disappear?
This could also be a hide-and-seek game.

She's Gone...

The Lady Vanishes

Photo Bombing the Apollo 11 Rocket Launch Before It Disappears into the Heavens

THEME: DISAPPEARANCE

Where did everyone/thing go?  Now you see them/it, now you don't.  Taking off...goodbye.

This one might be a bit challenging.

But it reflects the level of participation in The Kollage Kit for the last couple of weeks...

The Money Moment

Another from the archive as i have spent the day waiting for the plumber who never arrived - most annoying as we have no hot water for over a week now and fed up with boiling pans and kettles of war for baths and washing up etc.! Grrrr!

"Diamonds Are Forever "

Diamonds Are Forever
Of all the girls in the world Roger picked this one to bring his serenade....

This is one from my archives, (the money is in the title ;))
I'm still struggling with my hand, but hope to be collaging again soon.

One from the archive as I'm off to see our boy in Brighton for the weekend. Hopefully back to collaging on Monday.
