An experiment with ink-jet transfer

I have been doing a lot of experimenting with transfer techniques lately and tried this 6 x 6 with ink jet images in color and black and white. I transferred parts of 6 images, color washed in watery titan buff, color washed again in Studio "dash of red", buffed with a paper towel to remove some color, smeared more with fingers, then added some distress black soot. I covered the central image with paper and sprayed gold webbing around edges, then doodled, stamped in black soot, and collaged a piece of joss paper.....I love it!

My PAO Doll

On the PAO website, we are trading dolls that are supposed to represent us as paper artists..Here is my version. She is made of a wood block, spoons, and forks. She has a fimo face, crocheted hair and little artistic elements in her hands. She is even wearing my ever present blue UGGS slippers!

My Matchbox House

I made this little house from a small matchbox using different architectural stamps from CS and the POPs from the new Artifacts kit.

The door opens and inside it says "home sweet home"

Bird ATCs

These are the ATCs I made for Luanne's bird swap. They are in different color combinations.

Peace and Tranquility

Another card I made for Feb OCAM using TJ color burst background and Artistic Outpost stamps....some of the nicest stamps I've bought in a long time.

Fortune Teller

This is a card I made using Technique Junkies block collage background techniques and stamps from Artistic Outpost.

Claudine inspired collage

Dani came for the weekend and we spent two days playing with Claudine's background techniques. I bought all of her new sutdio line paints and we had a great time trying out the paint techniques. Here is a 5 x 7 collage that I did on one of my glazed paint backgrounds. I have finished backgrounds in peeled paper, peeled paint, and textured. Can't wait to finish them.

This collage makes me think of my family when we all get together...hence, the title.
