Mini Board Book
This tiny book was for a swap on Talk Crafts forum. The hostess supplied the book..the smallest I’ve ever worked in! I had no definite theme when I started working in it…it just seemed to grow into things that fly.
Scary flower doll!
One pretty scary lady! This jointed doll was enhanced..lol…with parts of a silk sunflower,the rough cut leaves for her modesty skirt,and what looks like her bikini top,although not my intention..it was just decoration around waist! still,does look cute with red diamantes…are flower parts…although I’ve never seen a green flower!! Her exaggerated lips are simply a heart shaped brad….her fancy boots are painted feet with fringed fibre to give illusion of fancy boots.
Altered Canvas Tag
This was for a swap….I applied a top layer of a 3ply napkin,to each side of tag,using Modge Podge. A second coat added to make sure it adhered. When dry,I covered with red liner tape sheet,dipped into clear micro holeless beads,and finished edges with Krylon gold leafing pen,and added various fibres to complete. I was surprised how flexible the tag was,even with beads…the downside was,that the napkin creased ..this was sorted by simply smoothing over beads…another surprise,it smoothed out! I was quite pleased with outcome,as tag was appreciated by recipient…probably as not such a popular method in UK,I do tend to lean towards USA for techniques.
