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

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

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

Card featuring a female tennis player in a white dress trimmed with lace and a pink belt, made from fabric, lace and ribbon. She is wearing a brown hat with a pink band. Her brown boots, racquet, hair, eyes and mouth were cut out from old magazines. As the whole figure is only 4" tall, it's very difficult to do eyes and the mouth from fabric! She is holding a tennis racquet in one hand and bouncing a ball with the other hand. The background is paper showing grass and buttercups

For today's theme of #pink for #acoloradAyPRIL, and as it's tennis season, here's a #mixed-media #greetingscard featuring an Edwardian "Lorna Tennys". Although her outfit is white, I thought the added pink ribbon gave the whole thing a bit of a lift 🎀 #handmade #collage #myowndesgn #ilovepuns

A cartoonish brightly coloured illustration. There is a sign in the lower right that says BOA Construction. There are six snakes at a construction site performing various tasks such as hammering, controlling vehicles and pushing a wheel barrow.

Going through some older work and I found this piece that always makes me laugh. I had the best time figuring out how to place belts and hard hats on these snakes. #kidlitart #childrensbooks #illustrator #ilovepuns

Collage picture of a male golfer in 1920s/1930s costume, with diamond-patterned socks, plus-fours, a ribbed woolly jumper and a flat cap. The background is grass with scattered daisies. Fabrics were from my stock & the golf club & shoes were cut out from an old magazine. Card is 4" by 6", so the facial features were quite tricky to do! For non-golfers, if the hole is completed in the required amount of shots, that is a par. If the hole is completed in 3 shots under par, that is known as an Albatross

I thought I'd be stumped by today's #FebruArty theme of #socks, until I remembered this mixed media collage card. Look at those snazzy socks! 👀 🏌️‍♂️ It's entitled 'Albert Ross' - golfers will appreciate the pun but, for others, it's explained in Alt Text #mixedmediacollage #greetingscard #ilovepuns

Picture of a Siamese cat in a green & white bowl, with two fish in a wavy blue sea

For today's #FebruArty #FishyFeb theme, I've managed to find another of my paper collage cards which has fish! 🐟 Old magazines were trawled (pardon the pun 😁) for the relevant images & it's entitled "Bowling Along" #handmade #papercollage #greetingscard #oldmagazines #savedfromlandfill #ilovepuns

Raindrops strung on two spiderweb strands with reflected marigolds inside.

One of last year's employee art show entries (won the jury award) titled "Marigolds in the Rain".
