do you love layers?

Have you joined in the Altered Pages Artsociates Challenge yet?  The latest theme is Chinese New Year.  Creating this piece for it reminded me just how much I love lots of layers of papers and images and paints and inks.
You know, there are a lot of supplies available at Altered Pages, many you may not have considered or seen before--one of my favorite go-tos is the package of Text Pages, which has an amazing (and generous) variety  of languages and music, all original papers.  A newer favorite is the Niji Pearlescent Watercolors, which give a beautiful sheen to pieces like this.

Happy Saturday to you--may it be creative!

    Thank you, everyone!

    I've been making lots of little collages again--so many layers, so much fun--art therapy at its finest!

 Handy Tip for Artists, Recyclers and Neat Freaks! I have a follow-up to the Citra-Sol method for creating fabulous background pages and collages.   I bought a big bag of navel oranges and realized I had the ingredients to make my own solvent!   Simply take a clean glass jar, peel the rind from the oranges and place all the rind/peels, without the pulp (tangerines, oranges, navels) into the jar.   Pour enough vinegar over the peels to cover them.    Allow the jar to sit for a week or two and VOILA!     You have made your own solvent for literally pennies.    You will notice the liquid getting a bit thicker than the plain vinegar and it does not smell bad!!! I now have a  HUGE jar on the window sill!       Be careful and only use this after testing on a safe spot.

Full Circle

Hi all! Becky here today! I have been in a circle-mood lately & have been doing circles on everything! So why not do some circles with some of my Gelli Prints??? Here's a simple little card I made using 4 different circle punches, a black pen & some previously made Gelli prints! Hope you're enjoying Springtime in your area! Cheers!
