EYEWEAR/HEADGEAR: "The Curious Sea Creature"


 Here's one from a long time ago to start!

(When I was using beautiful antique book end papers as backgrounds.)

Theme: Eyewear & Headgear

A bit of fun theme this week with all types of glasses & hats etc. welcome.


Either mix and match or separate.

This is my last theme of my Winter run.

Thanks for all the fine collages and comments over the last three months. They’ve all been a tonic during lockdown.

COMPASS POINTS: Your Pizza May Be Used as a Flotation Device


 From the archives.

I remembered this collage and thought it fit the theme nicely (and deliciously)!

COMPASS POINTS - Around The World


 I started this one some months ago and it's been knocking around my work table for a while. Decided to finish it today as it seemed ideal for this theme especially if I added a clipping of the Earth and a few more characters that might inhabit it's far corners!

COMPASS POINTS - The Wilderness


 From the archives.  I am actually working on a collage for this theme but it seems to be taking longer than I thought!  I'm easily distracted - had my first Pfizer vaccine jab on Friday so my collaging took a back seat.  Achey arm  for a day or so - feels better this morning.

"ME" - RZY BEAT


 I tore up a lot of paper and went to my pre-cut boxes to do this. I have a hard time making collages like this. After my worktable was filled with scraps, I had to leave it. 

Today, I went back, and it all happened.

A lot of the elements have a personal meaning to me.
