Wednesday Stamper - Orange

I'm going for a hat trick this week, my last 2 weeks pieces have hit the sampler on Wednesday Stampers challenge blog. Their theme this week is 'orange'.

I swiped my white piece of material with pumpkin stazon ink and frayed the edges. I printed the image onto ink jet transparency film and lightly melted the edges with a candle flame. Using my 'new toy', I stitched the image onto the fabric, again I just stuck to a simple stitch, added the flower and the ribbon.



I then realised, in order for it to qualify for Wednesday Stamper, a stamped image has to be present, so I got out my new ArtJourney stamps and used the word 'precious' along the bottom. I stamped it in spiced marmalade distressed ink.

Last two

These two were made in exactly the same way as the others. The background on the bottom one is just plain black card. They have both been mounted in to clip frames.

Another one

This one was done in exactly the same way as the one below except I used 3 strips of different papers on the image. The background paper is one I'd made a while ago using leaves as a mask

And this is it in the frame, again got a reflection from the glass

Been Playing

With inkjet transparency film. Printed the image onto the film and then made a collage of different papers behind it. In this one, she has a blue love heart on her nose!!! I then added a piece of music paper which I burnt the outside edges with lemon juice, a paper doyle which I covered with walnut crystal ink, a piece of Sir T!m's distressed paper, a couple of flowers, a flourish, a bit of ribbon inked with distress walnut stain ink and the word hope. I have placed it in a clip photoframe, but it didn't photograph well in the frame because of the reflection of the glass. It is actually quite large, the page/frame measures 10" x 8"
