Hi,
I’m Margarete Miller

I fell in to collage art after creating lots of journals and wanting to fill them up with art. My junk journals always contain vintage papers and ephemera, so it was only natural that my collage art would contain those things as well.

When I couldn’t find enough authentic vintage ephemera, I began going through my collection of vintage papers to share digitally with others who had a similar interest in creating beautiful collage pieces and gluebooks using timeless vintage ephemera.

FAQs

  • At the beginning of every month, you will receive a link to the latest magazine, which you can print at home, or read online. The magazine will contain the theme and projects for the month, lots of photos as examples and inspiration, and you’ll be ready to create.

    The themed monthly meet will happen around the 8th of the month (on a week day), and that is when signup will open for participating in the art swap, if you are interested.

    The last week is set aside to mail out art if exchanging.

  • The monthly magazines contain printable vintage elements that you can cut out and use. For example, there is the “Take3” challenge where three vintage inspired images are provided, and you are asked to create a collage with them.

    Additionally, since this a club that focuses on “vintage” there will be a lot of discussion and resources to help you get more vintage ephemera if you would like.

  • Communication for the Vintage & Collage Club mainly takes place on my community platform called The Collage Art Collective. This platform is run by Mighty Networks, which has a robust network for building community. And it contains no distracting ads!

    There is a well-built mobile app, which is very user friendly. This comes in handy especially since most people take pictures of their art with their phone.

  • Yes, you can. The price you join at is fixed at that rate, however, so if you decide to leave and then want to return to participate in a different project some months later, it could be that the price has increased.
