A few experiments are on my workdesk today. I have been trying to create an antique cracked paint effect on clear cards, with some success, though not quite what I want yet. I am also working on a "patchwork" bird using 1" squares of paper on chipboard, but of course I didn't have a spare piece of chipboard large enough to accommodate the bird, so I traced it onto two separate pieces hoping that I can adhere it to cardstock, then cover it with my paper and ideally, it will look as one solid piece. Of course things always work out perfectly when one is only thinking about it, but when work actually begins, nothing goes as planned.
I am anxious to get to work with the new Basic Grey paper called Curio. I pre-ordered it and it arrived last week, but I have been busy with other projects so here it sits, still in it's packaging, waiting patiently for me to create something. It is gorgeous paper by the way.
Behind me is my class table, which is covered with random projects that need to be finished. I worked last night on layouts for my class this evening, and I have finished assembling all the paper bag albums for the Streams to Rivers project next Tuesday. I still need to finish cutting the papers for the "kits" I am making for the kids, but I am more than half way finished, so just a little more cutting and that project will be ready to go.
Now they have decided to wake up and Flash doesn't look very happy about it.
Enjoy your Wednesday everyone!
