Embroidered Collage

I made these for a swap over on nervousness for "altered image" atcs.  Any technique was fair game, but the original image had to be visible in some fashion.  I was decoing and picked up the image in the upper right, and cut out the dancer.  Looked at it, then glued down the rest of the image, put some starred tissue paper on top, and glued the dancer right back into the spot she'd left.  When it was dry I added touches on the dress and ground with gold leafing pen.  I was pleased enough with it that I did the other three.  All four images are from Altered Pages collage sheets from grab bags.  It's fun finding uses for images I would have never bought on my own.
