How many times can I use the same image?

I was really happy that so many downloaded my free collage sheet, and was curious to see what can I make using the images from it. 
Zorana, Zoranaland, bird art, collage, Christmas card
The challenge I made up for myself was to create 10 different collages.

I used only the collage sheet (actually - several, I printed 3 copies), pages from a book, and materials that are always on hand (paint, markers, stamps, stencils).

This was fun! I loved it!
Painting over the image changed the character of the bird.
Here I added a cutout from another image to give the bird a second wing and used "ornaments" as parts for the tree.
Of course, I didn't throw away the bird that "lost" it's wing... 
Would you believe it - I made one without the birds! Surprised even myself :-)
I hope this gives you some inspiration, and would LOVE to see what you create.
Please share :)
