Three steps to a simple card

collaged card
approx 4.5″ x 5.5″

I have a big box of papers on the floor of my studio.  It contains “failed” or unfinished prints.  This little card has

  1. a tea bag background,
  2. some stamping with a block made of hair ties/elastics
  3. and a few hearts cut out of failed gelatin prints.
I am reminding myself to allow for fearless experimentation.  Funny how I have to keep reminding myself.  Happy Printing!

Collaging Gelatin Prints

little house a gelatin print
aprox 8″ x 8″
I was inspired by some children’s board books that I was priming for an altered book project.  So I dropped everything and dug through the pile of experiments and collaged this little house on a path.  It is fun to be inspired by what is before me.  Enjoy an accordion book that I made in a similar way.
