Another birthday card made for my brothers 60th birthday. Inside is a gift card for a movie and meal for 2. This card used some patterned paper that I have had in my stash for years.
This week I created the following card for the ladies at my two community groups that I lead: I used AALL&Create Budgie stamp. The budgerigar stamp was on special and I think I have an idea why. Look at the budgie on the right - looks in need of a feed - so I when I gave it a feed using my black marker he looked well fed! I also used masking of the bird then applied paint 'dabbed on' and when dry a stencil with Black Soot Distress Ozide ink completes the card. Such a happy card. Thank you for looking. Margaret
It has been awhile since I last posted - where does time go? I recently developed and run an introduction to junk journals and embellishments. I donated part of the small cost to the Community group where I lead classes for their mission efforts. Here are some photos of what I prepared for the participants. The journal cover was constructed from one 12" x 12" (30cm x 30cm) folded into a smaller size. My sample shows cotton fabric I coloured with distress and alcohol inks. Students received tea dyed ribbon. Cover plate features cheesecloth and lace behind the main image - bird from a magazine. The journal on the right was completed by one of the participants in the workshop. We started with a simple tag seen on the bottom. Next was a simple to construct belly band. Clusters can also be made along the band and then cut off later for clusters to be used in the journal. I love the simplicity of these bands that are great for decorating book pages. Next onto collaged belly
