Geisha faux postage ATC

Geisha faux postage
Originally uploaded by saunjune
I made most of this card sometime ago. It is the second card I am sending Jennifer! The background was made by inking the inside of a plastic folder, a few drips from 2 - 3 different colors, then squishing a glossy sheet of paper between the inked up folder. I will try to make a tutorial to explain that better. (I just have to find some time first...lol). It was then stamped w/ Staz-on ink in black, I think I used a Hero Arts stamp, but I could be wrong. And I really don't want to dig through my cache of rubber stamps right now to find out. :) I stamped over the geisha image with postal themed stamps, then mounted the image to some fancy hand screened, yummy, fiber-y paper. Tah-da!

Gathering all of my eggs in one basket

I am going to attempt to gather all of my past projects and art tid -bits to post on this blog. That means lots of sorting and seeking. I am now blogging via laptop, and most of my older pics are hiding out on the family desktop. Keep your fingers crossed, and we'll see how long it takes me! LOL For now here are some pics from recent projects. Fairy images by Lisa's Altered Art

Valentine Candy pockets

These are the valentines my kids and I are working on for their friends at school. I used the Cricut to cut the tags and envelopes (Tags, bags, boxes cartridge). Then we embossed the tags with Cuttlebug embossing folders, colored the image with pencils and Twinklette markers, and stamped them with hearts and cute sayings. Lastly I helped staple the candy and a sheer ribbon to the top.
