This
ATC did not turn out as I planned, however I will show it. It is made
with a piece of heavy foil, embossed with my embossing machine which is a
teeny tiny one. The piece of foil had three holes in it, since it came
out of a computer, so I added three die cut flowers. The green is an
experiment with alcohol ink that went wrong. I was hoping the ink would
stay where I wanted it - but no, it had a mind of it's own (message to
self - alcohol ink is very runny)
these
are a few embellishments I made a week or two ago and hadn't gotten
round to posting. the top two are made with milk carton caps, which I
have a collection of, lol.
I covered them with a scrap of satin or silk, yo-yo style, then embellished the top with sequins and beads.
Oh. before I started, I punched a hole through the top with my soldering iron to allow for adding the beads.
I actually have made more, but obviously haven't taken a photo yet.
The
bottom embellishments are made from these tiny tag shaped bits of metal
I got from laptop frames. I loved how tiny they were and the cute
shape, but had to think about the holes for a bit. sequins and beads
were the best way to jazz them up and fill the holes at the same time.
Here's
a few more being made. I am looking forward to making a piece with
some of these on. But as you know thinking is a long winded process.
It will happen when it's ready.
