She covers absolutely every element of papermaking and then uses varied (and unexpected) materials to create unique collages. Collage is a friendly and forgiving art form perfect for beginners, children, designers, quilters, and anyone seeking a creative outlet. To create texture, color, and layers, collage is broadened to include paper sculpture, dried flowers, fabric, thread, puzzle pieces, greeting cards, wrapping paper, stamps, and other common materials. Colorful kaleidoscopic collage is a special bonus. Presented with very detailed instructions, these projects are the ultimate in recycling.
