Friday Face Off

Another stitched face. I stuck to just black threads and a little applique for this one.

Next I tried Inktense blocks on fabric, no stitching

I outlined this one with black marker

Gelli Print Book - I've used an old cookery book to use some of the gelli prints I've been doing. I removed some of the pages so that it wouldn't get too thick and also added some collaged pieces.

I wanted to try drawing funny faces on fabric with my acrylic paint markers.

I also had some glossy photo paper which I've had for years but has never worked well with any of the printers I've had so I thought I would try the pens on that too. They work but they don't blend very well.
