Paper profiles

Ok, here is my version of the profile project. I covered a 6 x 8 canvas with word paper from 7 Gypsies. I then covered that with mod podge and tissue paper to dull it down a bit. I painted with black paint around the edges. I cut Ben's profile out onto green paper, ran a thin black line around the edge to give some definition, and attached it to the canvas with pop dots. Next I painted with black and then red to cover a grungeboard "B". It still needed a little somethin' so I added a couple rub-ons.

Still to come - A for Ali and E for Eric. :)

More Magazine Inspiration

Found this little blurb in the latest Good Housekeeping, and it reminded me of the fact that I have wanted to try to make some form of silouettes for the kids for quite awhile now. I made a trip to Michaels (and A.C. Moore) and got some canvases. Check back tomorrow to see my version of this project.

Method Playground Challenge

There is a new challenge up over at Method Playground. This one is to use fabric on a layout. Here is mine:

I made the little "yo-yos" with pieces of fabric. Very fun to do. Come check out the other layouts and play along! www.methodplayground.blogspot.com
