A few interesting (to me) things involving paper.
I added these to my book of Substrates
Vellum
This is a scrap book I have had for ages about 10X12
I collect pictures, leaves and general stuff that interest me and get me motivated
Wet watercolor paper then pressed objects into the surface to raise it
or make indentations
My book of substrates getting very full
2 more sheets of marks
Very interesting stuff. A heavy mailing envelope being sueded and some woven stabilizer for machine embroidery. It was very stiff so I scrunched, washed with soap and rubbed hard and when dry rubbed some more. I think this material will prove to be very interesting to work with.
Remember these. Below is a piece of plexiglass that I used to make a "smack"
Pictures of a smack coming up next post.
The embossed watercolor paper is fab!
