"SoulCollageTM is a process through which you contact your intuition and create an incredible deck of cards which have deep personal meaning and which will help you with life's questions. Following the simple SoulCollage directions, your hands move fragments of cut-out magazine pictures around, fitting them together in a surprising new way and gluing them down on a card. Cards containing the images you select -- or the images that select you -- come straight through your Soul, bypassing the mind. This is a multi-leveled, creative process which anyone can do. All you need is a good pair of scissors, pre-cut mat board cards, glue, and images you can cut out from magazines, greeting cards, personal photos, postcards, catalogues, and calendars. It is wonderful to have other people with whom to share the process. The cards are fun to take to a friend's house, to work with in therapy or support groups, or to keep on your coffee table."--Publisher description.

This is a great resource for workshop facilitators and collage artists who are looking for images. The doorway images come from all over the world, mostly India, Italy and Mexico. These photographs can be cut out and used in art journals, collage art, or even as writing prompts. Doorways are symbolic images which open up our imagination. The images are printed on both sides of the page, and most of the doors are double-sided, so when you cut the doors open, the back of the door aligns with the front of the door. You have permission to create your own art with these images and share them online.
