Tiny Scraps into Colorful Collage Inchies

I experimented with a new-to-me style because I have TONS of teensy little colorful watercolor scraps! What do you call this? Collage? Well, I do know one thing, these inchies took much much more time to put together. Cutting those tiny shapes, gluing them.... I had to do them in one or two at a time, because I still can't sit still for very long.
This one is my favorite. I hope they actually look like little parrot birds to someone other than me! The line they're perched on is black thread.
After a little trial and error, I found that this was the easiest fish shape to cut out this tiny. Guppies are kind of shaped like that, right? Or mollies?
This one was my husband's favorite. The little scrap I cut the mountains out of was the perfect color for mountains, I thought. Happy Sunday, everyone!
