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 24 Precious Youth

This ATC is not made on fabric paper. I know, shocking. This is actually made on mixed media paper. I like this paper as it is very thick, almost like card stock. It can hold paint and water and doesn't warp. The three colors of the base where a bright green, teal blue and deep blue. I just scraped them across the entire surface with an old credit card. I then attached an image of this precious little girl. I am not even sure where I got her image from. I then stamped the entire sheet of paper. (Yes more ATC cards to come from this bigger piece). I then used some paper tape.
