Susie's Artful Expeditions: Brayered and Gessoed Altered Paper

http://susieart.blogspot.com/2008/11/brayered-and-gessoed-altered-paper_29.html

Saturday, November 29, 2008. Brayered and Gessoed Altered Paper. Ophelia (http:/ opheliasart.blogspot.com/) is moderating a quick altered paper swap and is allowing me to participate. I created some papers using a Creole Spice rainbow pad, some distress inks, and some gesso, along with a few Paper Artsy and Stampers' Anonymous stamps. I can't take credit for this class, I learned the technique in a class created by Julie at our best local stamp store - Cornerstone. December 12, 2008 at 3:19 PM. A special...

Susie's Artful Expeditions: October 2007

http://susieart.blogspot.com/2007_10_01_archive.html

Monday, October 29, 2007. This month's theme was children. I decided to go with some things I liked to do as a child, reading and playing games. I got great inspiration from the Tim Holtz background papers, found some wonderful images and took it from there. Monday, October 22, 2007. These are for a nature themed swap, and I also combined them somewhat inadvertently with another challenge to use leaves. The background for these is fabric, which is new for me, but it was fun to work with.

Susie's Artful Expeditions: November 2007

http://susieart.blogspot.com/2007_11_01_archive.html

Wednesday, November 28, 2007. I recently did a mini ATC swap with a theme of 'Winter'. Mini ATC's are sort of halfway between inchies and ATC's. I chose to use some fun wintry images on a snowflake background. Monday, November 26, 2007. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). View my complete profile. Links to some of my most inspiring mentors.

Sunday, March 16, 2008. The second card as done by applying bands of color direct to paper and then using lots of impress me stamps to get color. A few of them were stamped with Lumiere gold paint.

Susie's Artful Expeditions: August 2007

http://susieart.blogspot.com/2007_08_01_archive.html

Sunday, August 26, 2007. When I grow up. This is the third sketchbook prompt I've worked on. The theme for this one was 'When I Grow Up' I let my daughter help me with the background on this one so it would be more playful. Sunday, August 19, 2007. For the back of my page, I decided to go a little more light hearted. The central Mona is a Lost Coast image, and the rest are things I found on the internet. Thursday, August 16, 2007.
