Welcome!

Thank you for visiting artful embellishments. This is the third year for this blog and I am so happy to keep publishing. I started in 2011 and began with a quilt of the week, this lead to the leaf of the week for my newly designed paper tree that is located on the wall of my garage in 2012.......2013 is going to bring a lot of excitement and positive change. As a personal challenge for 2013, I plan on designing a artist trading card each week to be featured on the blog.
With so many interests, there will be quilting, art quilting, leaves (and more leaves), as well as experiments in thermofax screen printing, fabric dying, and tons of DIY recycle projects. I may even enter that altered fashion scene. To a happy and healthy 2013, may we all find happiness in those things we create....thank you for stoping by artful embellishments.

ATC 21 Chronicles

This ATC was fun to put together. I have a few pages of ephemera of women from different time periods. The background was fabric paper. This particular piece there is glitter that was trapped within the glue mixture prior to it drying. The pearls were added as it fits the time period for this woman. The stitching is a bit wonky. My tension was way out of wack, but I like the fact that it is whimsical.
