Here is my entry for the Take a Word challenge this week. I am excited to be hostessing this week's theme, Memories. Recently I have been doing a lot of reading about the life of Mary Pickford and I decided that I would base my collage around these two images of her as a young actress. The images were found through a Yahoo image search; the photo of the old French lace and linens was taken by me, and the French postcard and script are from the Flickr Collage Images group. I colorized the collage in Photoshop and added the flowers in Paint Shop Pro. Thank you again, Marie for allowing me the honor of providing the image for this week's challenge. Please stop by the Take a Word blog to see entries from all of the participating artists this week..... =) xxooSunday, April 24, 2011

This is really beautiful Peggi. It has to be enlarged to see the beautiful detail of the lace work. The colouring is gorgeous. xx

Gorgeous, Peggi. A great example for us.
Hi Peggi - I was surprised to see only 10 comments for this beautiful piece as all the participants were raving about it. I always include a link but perhaps next time (for you and all the "volunteers") it might be an idea to post a comment as well.
Thanks again for allowing us to use this superb work.
Such beautiful work, Peggi. Your blending and layering are always amazing. This is a wonderful piece!
