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 30 Silver Crow

The silver crow started on a piece of water color paper. This is very similar to a previous ATC 24 Precious Youth. They both started from the same base. Multiple papers were decoupaged. Paper tape was used. The crow was stamped and then embossed with a silver powder. I love the 3D effect of the embossing. The definition of crow was added from a very old, yellowed dictionary.
