Just a few images from Weird Tales, November 1949. A nice new addition to my collection. #weirdtales #illustration #pulpfiction #oldmagazines #coverart

This paper collage card features a black and white dog wearing a yellow sou'wester, floating in a blue and white china cup. The sky is very dark, and the sea is rough - even the fish is looking worried!

When I saw this teacup in an old magazine, I knew exactly what I wanted to do with it - a card entitled 'Storm In A Teacup' 🙂 Rough seas, a gloomy sky plus a #fearless dog wearing a sou'wester completed the picture! #FebruArty2026 #Fearless #recycled #oldmagazines #savedfromlandfill #ilovepuns

A small white dog is in a grey vessel (it's an upside-down lampshade), and has silver spoon handles for oars. The sky is pale blue and the sea is various shades of blue. The finished picture is set in a square-aperture red card, which picks up the red fez worn by the dog. All the items were cut out from old magazines.

This little pooch is finding it difficult to hold the oars in his paws, so is just 'going with the flow' and hoping he'll get to the shore quickly #handmade #myowndesign #papercollage #greetingscard #recycling #oldmagazines #savedfromlandfill #FebruArty2026 #Flow

As soon as I saw this little puppy's face, I knew exactly what picture I wanted to make. Photo shows a brown, black and white puppy wearing a cream hat with a black band. He is sitting in an upturned glass lampshade, in the sea. I wanted to give the impression of it being the end of the day, so chose a sky with the setting sun, which is repeated in the colour of the sea. All items were cut out from old magazines, and placed in a white oval-aperture card.

Another of my paper collage cards is entitled "Lost At Sea", and totally sums up today's #FebruArty theme of #Fear. Poor little pup is afraid he'll never get home! More info in ALT #papercollage #handmade #myowndesign #recycling #oldmagazines #savedfromlandfill

Picture of a boat with a black mast and random patchwork sails. At the top of the mast is a flag depicting a golden sun with a 'face' and the rays resembling hair. The boat is plain red, and the sea is different colours of blue water. Because the sails were quite 'busy', I set the boat against a cloudless dark blue sky. This picture was then set into a square-aperture white card

Today's #FebruArty theme is #Float, so I immediately thought of another of my #papercollage cards. It's entitled 'Jumble Sails' and each element was cut out from old magazine pictures #myowndesign #handmade #recycling #oldmagazines #savedfromlandfill #ilovepuns

Picture of a Siamese kitten sitting in a woven fabric basket, with a silver spoon handle, plus two green cuff-links for wheels. The collage is placed on pale yellow marbled paper, and set into a blue, oval-aperture card. All images were cut out from old magazines.

I love cats and have made many #papercollage cards featuring them over the years. For today's #FebruArty #Feline theme, I've chosen this one, entitled 'Purr-ambulator' ☺️ #Ilovepuns #savedfromlandfill #recycling #oldmagazines #handmade

Picture of a golden labrador-type dog with a red collar. He's using a red and white striped mug as a vessel, and has a spoon handle for an oar. The sky is blue fading to white at the horizon, and the sea was made from layers of different coloured sea pictures. Everything was cut out from old magazines and set in a red, oval-aperture card

Another of my greetings cards for today's #FebruArty theme. The dog in this paper collage card certainly looks like he's having #Fun! 😁 #papercollage #greetingscard #handmade #recycling #oldmagazines #savedfromlandfill

Greetings card made from interwoven small strips of paper, cut out from old magazines pictures of holly, berries and hoar-frost

For today's #januarty2026 theme of #fresh, here's a woven paper greetings card, with fresh Holly and Hoar-Frost #recycling #oldmagazines #savedfromlandfill #greetingscard #wovenpaper

As someone who wears short skirts I identify with this so much. #oldmagazines I don't want someone seeing my nasty thigh hair! (Ladies Home Journal, September 1988)

A black & white dog, wearing a yellow sou-wester, is afloat in a blue & white teacup on a very rough sea. A fish is just visible in the sea, looking up at the dog. The sky is very dark & stormy.

As Storm Amy will be arriving for much of the UK over the weekend, this paper collage greetings card, made from old magazine pictures, seemed appropriate - "Storm In A Teacup". Stay safe, everyone! #papercollage #greetingscard #oldmagazines #recycling #savedfromlandfill #myowndesign

A black & white dog sits in a blue & white teacup, whilst wearing a yellow sou-wester. There are layers of a rough-looking sea against a very dark sky. An inquisitive fish is looking up at the dog.

"Storm In A Teacup"
It's been quite stormy here today, with torrential rain for a while, so I thought this paper collage card was appropriate. All the pieces were cut out from old magazines. #papercollage #greetingscard #handmade #oldmagazines #savedfromlandfill

For this dog, I chose a black and grey tweed coat, plus a black knitted hat with a brown pompom. The brim of the hat is resting just above the eye, and the nose is a very small pale blue bead.

The tweed for this dog is teal, brown and orange whilst the knitted hat is grey with a brown pompom. Again, the nose is a very small dark green bead. The brim of the hat is above the eye giving this dog a totally different character to the previous dog.

For obvious reasons, this one is a Scottie Dog, with a blue tartan coat and a blue and red hat known as a Balmoral Bonnet. His nose was a very small red bead

This is a section of the original wrapping paper, but I wasn't keen on their 'coats' so gave each dog a different one plus a matching had, cut out from old magazines

For #InternationalDogDay here are a few paper collage cards. The original dogs were cut out from wrapping paper, and given a tweed/tartan coat plus a suitable hat; the position of the hat gives each dog its own character 😉 #papercollage #greetingscard #reuse #recycle #oldmagazines #savedfromlandfill

Collage card made from old magazine pictures. A black & white cat is sitting in a rusty colander, in a rather choppy sea, looking down at a giant goldfish nearby. The sky is blue with white wispy clouds.

For #internationalcatday, here's a paper collage card entitled 'Colander Girl'. No sure whether she's concerned about the holes in her 'vessel' or the size of the fish in the water! 😁 #recycling #oldmagazines #savedfromlandfill #papercollage

In case you missed it #1990s #oldmagazines

A photo from the September 1925 issue of The American Magazine of Art, showing a scuplture of a man and woman embracing. The sculptor was Harriet Frishmuth.

Timeless beauty from long ago: This sculpture, "Fantasie," is by Harriet Frishmuth. The image from The American Magazine of Art, September 1925.

Card depicting a white & tan terrier-type dog, wearing a metal helmet. It's sitting in a red & white striped cup & is using a silver spoon handle for an oar. The sky is mostly a deep blue, with a fluffy white cloud in the corner, while the sparkling sea is made from various layers of blue water.

#blueskymonday This is another collage card, using things cut out from old magazines. It's entitled 'Doggy-Paddle' and he's obviously enjoying the very summer-y blue sky! Further details in Alt Text #recycle #oldmagazines #savedfromlandfill #ilovepuns #papercollage

Okay but this 1924 edition of The Scottish Farmer didn’t have to come for me like that 🥾 #oldmagazines #oldbooks #fashion #oldadvertisement

The card depicts a rust-coloured boat with a blue mast and an orange/gold pennant. The sails were cut out from a rust-coloured tweed jacket; you can still see the buttonholes! The sun appears to be setting in the sky behind the boat, and the calm sea was cut out from a pale blue, fairly calm water picture

Day 27 of #acoloradAyPRIL and today's theme is #rust. This paper collage card was made from things cut out of old magazines, and is entitled 'Autumn Sails'. The boat was from something cork & the sails were from a jacket #oldmagazines #savedfromlandfill #papercollage #ilovecrafting #homemade

482. Seventeen Magazine, March 1996 (see also: 1994, 1995) Two things that are sightly upsetting: 1. I barely remember looking through this issue when I was 12. 2. I had to pay $30 for this issue off eBay. Unfortunately, the Tendreci…

The card shows a dark brown, tan and white puppy, with a cream and black hat, sitting in a gold vessel - actually an upturned glass light shade! The sun is setting in the sky, giving it a gold appearance, and this is reflected in the sea. I also found water which had the same colours as the puppy. This is one of my favourite paper collage cards :-)

For today's #acoloradAyPRIL #gold theme, I thought this card was appropriate. It started with the little puppy, and he looked so forlorn, he immediately became 'Lost At Sea'. All the pieces for this #papercollagecard came from #oldmagazines. More details in Alt text. #savedfromlandfill #recycle

The head of a tan coloured, grumpy-looking cat, is sitting in a pink mug with a Nice biscuit motif, and the background is a piece of white material with sprays of tan coloured foliage. For anyone who doesn't live in the UK, Nice (sometimes pronounced niece) biscuits are thought to have been named after the French city, to evoke a sense of elegance and sophistication, but I had the feeling that the cat wouldn't want to be known as 'nice'!

When I started making greetings cards a long while ago, this was my first collage effort. The colour of the cat is picked out in the patterned background, so I thought it was suitable for today's #acoloradAyPRIL #tan theme. #mixedmediacollage #greetingscard #oldmagazines #savedfromlandfill #reuse

Picture depicts a white and tortoiseshell cat sitting in a pale wooden bowl. It wears a hat which has holes for the ears to poke through. The sky is pale blue and slightly cloudy, and there is a seagull flying overhead. The colour of the sea reflects the fur of the cat, and is a bit choppy so hope the craft and cat stayed safe! I was quite pleased that the colours all matched :-)

Thought I might have a problem with today's #acoloradAyPRIL theme of #peach until I trawled through my cards & found this paper collage entitled 'Bowl-ing Along'. Made from pieces cut out from old magazines & mounted in a peach-coloured card. #papercollage #oldmagazines #savedfromlandfill #reuse

#limegreen is today's theme for #acoloradAyPRIL. Instead of throwing away old gardening catalogues, I use them to make cards. This is a woven paper design of sweet pea flowers and lime green leaves, set in a bright pink card. #savedfromlandfill #reuse #recycle #oldmagazines #greetingscards

Nine paper hearts, each showing a double-buttoned cuff which, to me, looked like eyes. The curved edge of the cuff made the nose, and where the sleeve was laid against the shirt (in the catalogue), it resembled a bit of a grimace. And if you're 'of a certain age', you might remember a radio programme in the UK, featuring Ron & Eth Glum :-)

For anyone feeling a bit down in the dumps today, I'm hoping this might at least give you a little smile. It's made from old clothing catalogues, and they're actually buttoned cuffs. Affectionally entitled "The Glums" #greetingscard #papercollage #recycle #oldmagazines #savedfromlandfill #crafts
