What's a "collage sheet"?
A collage sheet is a collection of images arranged on a single sheet.  They are often printed onto nice linen paper or textured paper, cardstock, photo paper or transparencies.  You can then cut out individual images to use in your altered art and crafts projects.

We sell both printed collage sheets and digital collage sheets.  A "digital collage sheet" is a digital jpg file that you download to your computer and then print yourself onto the paper or papers of your choosing.  You don't need any special software, just a laser or inkjet printer.  You can also print onto transparencies, transfers, sticker-backed paper, even fabric, whatever you desire that will work in your printer.

Why digital?
There are many advantages to receiving our collage sheets in digital form.  One is that you can choose your own paper or other media, and print the collage sheet as often as needed.  Rather than purchasing a single copy of a pre-printed sheet, you are purchasing a file you can print yourself whenever and however you need it for your personal use!  This means that digital collage sheets are a much better value than pre-printed sheets, and can save you hundreds of dollars over time.  Another advantage is that our digital collage sheets are delivered to you instantly via the internet, with no shipping charges and no wait time.  

Why "jpeg"?
Unlike PDF files, JPG images can easily be resized or edited.  And they offer superior image quality compared to PDF files (which are not technically even image files, but more like a screen shot intended for text pages) and do not require any additional software to open them.  JPG is the ideal format for the home crafter and digital artist.  While PDF offers advantages for the seller, we find that JPG offers better quality and more flexibility for you, the customer!  

What are collage sheets used for?
They're perfect for collage, ATCs, altered books and such, but so many other projects as well!  Lunagirl collage sheets are great for all kinds of paper crafts. Print and clip for your scrapbooks, assemblage, paper piecing, decoupage projects.  Make lovely unique ornaments and tags. 

Create gorgeous handmade cards with our collage sheet images plus your stamps, glitter, ribbons and other embellishments!  You can use them to create beautiful pendants and picture charms for bracelets, hip charms and other jewelry (we even offer "mini" images ready-made for charms and pendants!)

Images may be used to create unique altered art and handmade craft items for sale in small numbers (less than ten reproductions of any image), on the simple condition that you credit Lunagirl Images or Lunagirl.com when you sell, display or publish your work (with a link if online).  Please read our License Agreement for some limits on commercial use.

Can I print individual images from a collage sheet?
Each collage sheet is a single jpg file which will print as an entire sheet, so you cannot readily print individual images taken from a collage sheet.  You can use image-editing software to crop out individual pictures, but if you prefer individual images you'll probably prefer to purchase one of our image CDs, which are collections of individual jpg images.  CLICK HERE TO SEE

Can I resize the pictures?
Each sheet is designed to print as a letter-sized sheet (8-1/2 x 11 inches).  Because each collage sheet is a single image, you cannot resize the individual images on it. 

HOWEVER because these are jpgs you can easily resize the whole sheet! 
If wish to use the images on a sheet in a slightly different size (for example, small for jewelry), just print the entire sheet larger or smaller.  Keep in mind that if you go too large they will start to lose clarity -- but you can go as small as you like.

TIP:  If you will be resizing our sheets when you print them, remember to resize a copy and keep the original.  That way you won't lose resolution from repeatedly resizing and resaving. 

What kinds of images are on your collage sheets?
Take a look and see what an incredible variety you'll find!  Antique photographs and vintage postcards, beautiful art, Edwardian and Victorian cards, old letters with beautiful handwriting in English and French, antique paper money, vintage ads -- proper ladies and sassy flappers, charming children and whimsical fairies, birds, flowers, butterfly wings, divas from every era, cowgirls and bellydancers.... plus much, much, much more... really!  Explore our collage sheets and be inspired by our amazing collection of images and ephemera!

Where do you get the images on your collage sheets?
Our collage sheets are crafted using our giant archive of ephemera and other source material. We spend a great deal of time collecting, digitizing, restoring, altering and embellishing images to make them "just right" before we add them to our collage sheets to create a unique design resource for your projects. 

We carefully research the copyright status of any images we use, and we take care that the images used in creating our collage sheets are not copyrighted by anyone other than us.

Can I purchase my collage sheets printed instead?
Sure!  We offer printed versions of every single one of our collage sheets, for those who prefer them that way. Just choose the printed version when you make your purchase (use the drop-down menu under "Prints and Products), and we'll promptly ship them to your door!

(Yearly or monthly subscriptions are for downloads only, however.)
