journal again

Image
I love the zebra duct tape.  It is just so cool.  Did I mention that my ultra wonderful husband put it in my stocking for Christmas last year?  I am putting it to good use.  I may have to get the leopard print duct tape too!  These little journals are so quick and easy.  I like having them on hand for a little gift or to take on a short trip.

another quick journal

I love these colors.  The journal is filled with painted papers all in turquoise.  Yummy.  It is another duct tape journal.  They are so quick to make. 

quick little journal

I really thought that I had posted this one already but I guess not.  A while back I watched Diana Trout on youtube make a duct tape journal.  It was so quick and easy I just had to make one.  What is even better is that I had zebra print duct tape to work with.  Isn't it the best?  My husband put it in my stocking at Christmas.  What a good guy!  He knows what I love.  I have since put my own spin on making these journals and will post more pictures later.

Can you see the woman and her dog in the canoe?  Nice.

It has been a long time since I have seen a good sunset.  This one wasn't spectacular but it was good.  Enjoy!

beading on paper

Image
I really enjoyed stitching on this paper.  It is quite heavy with the beads now but because of the interfacing on the back I am not worried about it.  This is different for me.  I believe I am learning and growing as an artist.

crinkled paper and other oddities to stitch upon

I ordered something on line and when it arrived it had this cool paper stuffed in the package.  I decided to crinkle it and wrinkle it.  The more I did the more cloth like it became.  I backed it with a light fusible interfacing.  I plan to stitch it and embellish it with beads.  I hope it is sturdy enough.
