I attended a wonderful workshop after finding the book "Soulcollage" by Seena B. Frost.
Two of my loves in one.... collage and 'tarot/oracle cards" ahhhh but THESE you create yourself for yourself !
Here in Sydney, the very talented teacher Suzanne Naseby runs workshops.
I'm booked into the next one... who's with me? :D
find a workshop elsewhere in Australia

First step this year is my Sunday morning Sollagecollage 'date'. As friends and family know, and ones I've shared time at retreats with :), I don't sleep much and I'm a very early riser. So in the peaceful space of early Sundays... starting today, I have cleared time for a Soulcollage 'date'.
EVERYONE can do Soulcollage. If you can hold a pair of scissors YOU CAN DO IT.
There are no expectations, lots of revelations and it's a gentle, positive and enriching experience, for everyone.
Yes I'm an artist and in fact I can tell you, THAT made it harder at first than those of you who 'claim' (and you KNOW I KNOW everyone IS in fact an artist!) to be terrible at art. I had to stop thinking about outcomes and pleasing the viewer and TOTALLY immerse myself into the process. Something I often used to claim I did anyway, but in reality, after experiencing Soulcollage, realized I did not.
So today I FINALLY made my "Witness" card YEAH!!!! I saw that silver guy and IMEDIATLY he said Witness to me. :) I have used the main focal point of my "Source" card (the sunflower) in this card.
For those familiar with the Soulcollage process.... I create my cards first, then meditate on what suite they are destined for and what they are. Individual images rarely say anything to me and I don't plan my cards out, so I was very delighted to find my little silver guy!
Next card I created, with the house, is for my Committee Suit
"The One Who is Not Confident"
I am the one standing in mist
I am the one balancing on uncertainty
I am the one standing outside the circle
I am the one who cant keep on the ground
I am the one who can't follow the lines
I am the one who stretches higher
I am the one who fears the fall
I am the one who is not confident
They are both still a little crinkly but they smooth out after the dry :)
The final is the very Soulcollage Card I made at Suzannes' workshop last year...
