GPP Street Team Crusaide #39
What a great time I had with this. Crusaide #39 is monoprinting. At the top of this picture are smashed flowers that I did with my Wizard using Grape Hyacinth that I found in the grass at a farmers market. I'm not going to scrape off the guts. I think they look so cool. They were still quite juicy even after sitting in the car all day.
The first mono prints were in turquoise and bronze. Yum! I used my Ideology masks for some of these. In this next picture, you can hardly tell what I used as the mask. I used way too much paint.
This one is a print off of the first one. I just laid a piece of paper over the first print to blot off the excess. What a surprise! I love it.
I think this one was after I removed the mask, but I am not totally certain. Hah, so much for remembering by the picture placement.
I love the brushstrokes in this one and everything is so clear.

Just so you know, if you overmix turquoise and orange you end up with baby poop brown. Yuck. Definitely not my favorite.
Here are some other prints that I like from stencils.

These stencils are from Dreamweaver. I love these. As you can see, I realy loved the turquoise and copper on these and used it again and again.

My Muse has returned!
It has been a long time since my muse has been here, but I am pleased to say she is back in all her glory!I purchased this pattern for the May Pixie by Faewyck Studios from Joggles.com almost a year ago and just now got around to making her. I do love making dolls so much. I still hate turning fingers though. LOL. The embroidered fabric is from a dress I purchased at Goodwill during their big sale recently. I snarfed up a ton of dresses and such for fabrics. The hair is from a wool yarn I got at a second hand store years ago. The body is a fabric I got at a yard sale. The face and hands are also from a dress.
