Here are the 6:
Between the Cradle and the Grave.
The postage is from the Royal Faux Postage Sheet and I've also applied a purple face pebble from Artchix as well as a mainly purple transparency. The cradle itself is part of my original fabric/paper collage and was a vintage image.
Ripe Fruit on the TableThe original fabric/paper collage was made for my September Journal Quilt and I added the tulip Faux Postage and the Artchix butterfly transparency. The transparent text is also from an Artchix sheet.
Spring
A left over from another fabric collage and again I added a flower from the Peace and Tranquility Faux Postage, this time a yellow poppy and a transparent face and text, all Artchix. This one has a lot of sparkle, which is hard to see on the scan but quite satisfying (to me!) in real life.
He Sought for her HeartThe last remnant of the pink/lime green collage I made while teaching at the Loch Lomond Quilt Show. Can you see that spear aiming at the heart ( well sort off, allowing for artistic licence!). I've added Faux Postage from the Love Post sheet as well as a lovely lime green flower. The transparent text is again from Artchix. I'm continually amazed how I manage to find text so suited to my finished pieces. It just leaps up from the pages I'm scanning. Serendipity at its best!
A Song of Glory
This collage was originally for my November Journal Quilt and I love the colours. The bird from the Peace and Tranquility Faux Postage and the nest and text are Artchix too.
Finally my favourite of the 6. The fabric/paper collage is a leftover from the spread I did for Abby Lazar's ArtisticJourneyinColor RR album, which had the theme The Blues. I added the beret suited woman which seemed to go so well with the man leaning against a wall seeing as they both looked like rebels to me. I added the transparent clock and the word La Reunion jumped off the sheet at me, asking to be added.

Lovely, Freida. I'm so tempted by these, but I really need another size thing to make...not.
