Texture page



As part of the Trish's Art Quest challenge I had to find a sketchbook and start the first page spread with some texture. I used hacked up bits of muslin, glued it down then used adirondack dye ink pads to colour it. Here is the plain page. I now have to make it into an altered book page. Will post when I've done that

Mini ATCs


My first attempt at mini ATCs - 1.5x2.5 inches. The theme of the swap was Autumn Colours so I stuck with the obvious. I am pleased with how these turned out - I found this size much easier to deal with than inchies. In real life these have very shiny gold leaves

Geodeco thingy


I used the tutorial for geodeco thingies from After Midnight to make one for a swap. Some people have sent in pictures of the ones they made for the swap into the gallery there. There are two other galleries with lovely examples too.
