This is my second attempt at collage. I'm much happier with this composition.

My design teammate, Starr, is group leader for Cartes Classiques. Her first challenge was to make a card that had a vintage image, a vintage stamp, and the sentiment: You are far bigger than anything that can happen to you. The end result is this card on a blank black card 5-1/4"x5-3/4". And here's a close-up of the sentiment:
Green Paper: photo of woman entitled Resignation
Graphics Fairy: Arc de triomphe , French postage stamp, and Parisien ticket
I added the sentiment to the ticket: "You are far bigger than anything that can happen to you." I also stamped on it the word "fragile" from the Red Lead Paperworks postage plate.
Stampabilities Paris Post Mark stamp;

This is very beautiful, and as Paris is one of my favourite places, just very special!
Wow! I LOVE this! Fantastic collage, Helene!
Ghost in the house is playing as I look at your card, setting a perfect mood. Lovely.
Just loving your collage project, which is wonderful. Beautiful work! Have a fabulous day!
I like the contrast of the stong stone arch and the woman, who by her pose and your addition of the word fragile, seems delicate. Nice ticket alteration, Helene. :D
WOW! This is an amazing card!
Lovely combination of elements! Love the touch of lace!
It's a wonderful collage!!! I love it.
Beautiful! I like how you've clustered things and how you added some dimension by creasing and curling.
This is lovely, and that lace is a pretty touch.
Only your second collage???? You could have fooled me, I would have thought you'd been at it for years! Beautiful. Now I'm off to check out the site!
