“Far away in the sunshine
are my highest inspirations. I may not reach them, but I can look up and
see the beauty, believe in them and try to follow where they lead.”
– Louisa May Alcott

Collage Postcard for Cricket – 4″ x 6″ Postcard
This is another of my postcard collages. My very first time doing
something like this. My friend, Cricket, is a big part of our local
farmer’s market. I imagine she has grown a tomato or two. I really
hope she likes it.
About Louisa May Alcott
Louisa May Alcott, the beloved American author, is best known for her semiautobiographical novel,
Little Women,
which was made into a movie five different times. Born on November 29,
1832 near Philadelphia, she grew up in Massachusetts. Her family lived
in the genteel poverty depicted in her fiction. She wrote lurid stories
anonymously to bring in money but gained fame under her own name with
young adult novels, which held readers with their warm characterizations
and simple, engaging style. She died on March 6, 1888.
