Tag Tuesday - Not On Paper
By ScrappyPam on Aug 21, 2010 | In Stamping
This week over at Tag Tuesday (I'm thinking Louise should change the name of her challenge so that it doesn't reflect how late I usually am with my submissions, don't you??) the theme is "not on paper".
It took me a few days to think about what I wanted to do and I was leaning towards metal. Then I saw Lori's tag and decided that there was no way I could top that. (That, and I couldn't get Wonder Woman out of my head.) Then I found some neat suede material stuff (I don't know what it is, but it's cool) in the RAK box that Ann over at StampHaven had sent me (and I haven't put away yet) and decided that was the way to go.
Note: No paper was harmed in the creating of this project!
I realize that it looks like paper. But it's not. You'll just have to trust me. It's a green suede/felt type of fabric. Sort of. Anyway, I stamped on it (Judikins) and put a painted and stamped corrugated cardboard swirl (Tim Holtz Alterations) on it.
You know those thin, foam-plastic place mats that you see at garage sales? I used Tim's Tattered Florals die and cut out some flowers out of the old one I had laying around, which I then alcohol inked and added with a large brad and washer.
The chipboard sentiment says "happiness" in some language (Japanese, maybe? I have no clue) and I topped it off with some ric rac and a metal swirl. I did back the suede stuff to chipboard so that it holds its shape. And ta-da! No paper! (Whew!)
