I love playing with paper almost as much as I love playing with fabric. You might remember that I've made a lot of books in the past (see this, and this for example) and every once in a while the urge hits me again. I fall under the spell of gorgeous patterned papers and I can't resist.
So I have been experimenting and playing with some specific projects in mind. I spent one afternoon spraying paper with strong coffee to get a vintage effect, and messing about with paints and inks to see if I could make paper look like leather.
Funny that I'm never drawn to brown fabric, but something about these rich warm brown papers really appeals to me. And then there is SEWING on paper, which is really fun. I love the pucka-pucka-pucka sound the needle makes going through paper. But then, I'm easily amused.
And once I get going, it's hard to stop. (Which explains how I sewed my way through a whole bunch of episodes of "Dance Mom." I didn't want to stop to change the channel.)
