I HAD THE PLEASURE THIS PAST FALL TO TAKE SOME ON LINE CLASSES WITH THE WONDERFUL AND VERY TALENTED LESLEY VENERABLE OF THE ART OF ALTERING....One of the classes was working with GOOD OLE RELIABLE WAX PAPER.... YOU KNOW THE KIND MOTHER USED TO WRAP YOUR SANDWICHES UP WHEN YOU WHERE IN GRADE SCHOOL (ARE YOU STILL FOLLOWING ME OR AM I SHOWING MY WISDOM?)
I FOUND THAT I LOVED THIS NEW MEDIA FOR WINTER AS I WAS ABLE TO CRINKLE OR WRINKLE IT UP, LAYER IT AND SMEAR IT WITH PAINT AND GLITTER SO THAT IT WOULD SPARKLE GLISTEN LIKE SNOW
|
OLE ST NICK WALKING IN THE SNOW |
|
WAS THE THEME TO MY HOLIDAY CARDS |
|
LAYERING THE WAX PAPER, I WAS ABLE TO ACHIEVE THE EFFECT OF DIMENSION AND DEPTH BECAUSE OF THE TRANSPARENCE |
|
REMEMBER TISSUE PAPER CARNATION FLOWERS?, WELL THANKS TO LESLEY VENERABLE WHO TRANSLATED THEM IN WAXY CREATIONS.... I DECORATED MY NEW YEARS TABLE |
|
IN RHODE ISLAND WE ADD ADDITIONAL BEES WAX WITH A HOT IRON TO ADHERE LEAVES AND FLOWERS BEWTEEN TWO LAYERS OF BROWN WAX PAPER FOR A VINTAGE LOOK. THEN WE SEWED AROUND THEM FOR A UNIQUE LOOK AS A PAGE IN A BOOK |
|
TO KEEP TO A WINTERY THEM I ADD THE WAX PAPER TO CORRUGATED PAPER FOR ATC'S
START PLAYING WITH IT AND YOU TOO WILL BEE ADDICTED LIKE I AM.... HAPPY WAXING! |
