Pink quilled flower

I haven't done any quilling for a while.  I got a bit rusty at it.  This is just a simple little card.

Piece of Cake birthday

This is another brass stencil.  You can never go wrong with chocolate cake!  The paper was sanded after it was dry embossed.

Birthday Cupcake

This is a brass stencil of a cupcake.  I dry embossed the lower part, then coloured with chalks.  The frosting is 'whipped paper fluff'.  It adds great dimension to your artwork.

Cover of Board book

Board book-tiny book open

I placed a tiny book in the hole of the board book. Here it is open.

Final Layout in the board book

This is the final layout in the board book. The buckle is shown closed here. It opens another tiny book. The quote is written again in the tiny book. This tutorial was hosted by the moderator of ABCanada, an altered book yahoo group. I had a great time exploring different mediums in this project.

More Blue Birds

I am having fun with this technique. If you haven't checked out Michelle Zindorf's work, you should. She will inspire you too!

Alice all dressed up!

This is Alice all finished. This was such a neat project to work on. I didn't have the proper pencils and pens for the face, so don't look too closely! I have learned a lot as this was my first try at making a cloth doll.

Alice in her Camiknickers

Alice even has under pants!

Doll Clothes

These are my doll's clothes. I named the doll Alice. She has a hat, blouse, jacket, skirt and camiknickers. How cute is that?!

Doll body

This is my first cloth doll. She was interesting to make. This is the body.
