Taking A Break .....

I will be taking a long awaited and hard earned break in a couple of days and will be back in two weeks' time. See ya!

Another New Background Paper

I'm addicted to making backgrounds! Here is another, this time a shabby, faded floral collage.

New Background with Marie

This is the background I recently showed you, only now I have played around with it in Photoshop by adding a few Marie-Antoinette images into the mix and this is the final result.

New ATC - "Praline"

A new atc made from scraps of vintage sheet music and printed paper, machine sewn and collaged with an image of a Victorian lady and embellished with lace scraps and other embellishments.

New Stuff!

This is a new background paper I have working on for a while. I love making backgrounds but they can be so time consuming as I like to fiddle a lot and incorporate lots of different scraps, stamps and ephemera. This one was started a year or so ago (!) and I came across it in its unfinished state last week by chance and have been finishing it off this week. It is basically different strips of vintage text/patterned paper, some with scrunched up tissue paper and gesso applied on top and then stamped and collaged with bits and pieces.
