Just playing

These beads are made from fabric, cotton muslin, painted with lumiere colors, then stamped, heat set
and rolled onto a straw with a bit of glue. Finally wrapped wire and beads. A quick and fun project.
 
 
 
 
 
 
 

This is an experiment I wanted to make with chalk on acrylics... I made the background collage with newspapers and acrylic colors and then wanted to draw a lotus flower or waterlilly...
my chalks turned out to be too soft and so I went on to use acrylics. Finally added some stamped embellishments to the edges. Actually I wanted to do pastel - but you know how things emerge......
Collaged and painted on canvas board.

Haven´t shown anything for quite a while. Had to get thru September before I reduced working hours.
Now I feel halfway well rested again.
Finally made some time to play digitally....thanks to the generous members of the CM.

Rubberstamps by Sunday International, A Capella. Paste paper scraps I had made for a bookcover

We met at a friend´s home for a long weekend which included going to the Stempelmekka, the biggest German stamp convention in Hagen. We had so much fun stamping and chatting. My favorite collage techniques are all sorts of transfers of which I was glad to show some.
Here ´s the card I made(trying Distress Inks for the first time)
