Vintage Newspaper Collage

  I found an old " Cornish Telegraph" dated 1922 in a charity shop, of course I had to have it!!




  •   After I collaged some of the pages together I cut out some flower shapes.



  • I used " Filigree fluid" to create a raised impression around each flower head.Then added washes of colour.




  •  I decided I wanted to make 3 panels .
  • More detail was added with leaves and and lots of random stitching.
Until next time Thanks  Linda
