HIGH TEA WITH ME

Lots of levels of paint, napkin tissue, and an image. The steam from the tea cup is made with angelina fibres, strands of heavy thread, glued down with Wonder-Under.

PUZZLE ART

These are a few puzzle pieces, and a full wooden puzzle I had altered some time ago.
I thought you might enjoy seeing what you can do with little puzzle pieces just waiting to be altered.

Schooldays - Aged paper background, stickers, crayon, slide.



Asian Lady - A fabric background with lace and ribbon.


50's Housewife - this one has a fabric background as well.


Wooden puzzle, altered separately then put back together.


I hope you try this sometime. Lots of fun!

ASIAN SPREAD

Here is the book spread I did using an ATC (bottom right) from MaryBeth. This is the current Asian mingle in the AB Yahoo Book Club.
I used images, butterfly rub on, Asian coins, sheet stamps, dyed cheesecloth, stickers. I painted the background pages with H2O Radiant Rain watercolor dabbers.

JUST ONE LOOK

This is a book spread done for a Number mingle with our Canada AB Yahoo group. The lovely ATC was made by Kristy. I then used it in my page spread. The background is made with deli paper.




NOSTALGIA

This is a book collage spread I did, using beeswax on the right hand page only.

TRAVEL BOOKLET

This is a booklet I constructed out of cardboard inserts/dividers from a wine carton. I twisted, pulled, pushed, inserted, until it became a book. What fun! The signatures are held together with adhesive cloth, as in bandage tape. It closes with a black elastic cord.
It measures 8.5 ins x 4ins.
I glued a vinyl type paper to the covers.




The Cover






















And the last pages with the trifold open. The third section is the back cover.




COME FLY WITH ME

Am I hoping for an early Spring? You bet I am!
Here is my journal offering, fresh and hopeful, now that the snow is all gone.
Images, rubber stamps, rub ons, netting, vellum quote, trim, background acrylic paints.
