A New Challenge & A New Addiction

On Alter it monthly 's blog, I found a great challenge that inspired me. The theme is Out of the wood. So I altered a small paper bag with 2 covers that I cut from a clementine crate. This little girl is my mom in 1935. I glittered her wings and crown and I added the scrabble tile J because her name was Jacqueline!





And now my new addiction! It is to use my stamps directly on thin masonite and cut them with my scroll saw. I love my collection of new and unique embellishments. It is much more sturdy than chipboard. The pocket watch frame was made from a tattered angel stamp.


Have a creative Monday!

    Hi
    The bag is beautiful and I love the photograph of your mum.
    Making your own embellishments, now that is satisfying.
