Student Level: All
Type of Workshop: Process and Project
|
Create a uniquely stitched tape covered, content filled journal using my favorite cardstock, paper ephemera, a plethora of deco tape, needle and thread. I quickly fell in love with this journal and carried it with me everywhere last summer as it is small enough for every day, on the go use. I loved how I could slip it in a Ziploc bag with a glue stick, some collage ephemera and a handful of pens. I worked on it every day, everywhere. You will learn how to blend and layer colorful ephemera and that leaving a little white space is good! This journal is definitely one of my most favorite books that I have ever worked in. I loved learning how to work with the open spaces on the pages, using pens, stencils, stickers and more. I can’t wait to share what I’ve learned with you! I guarantee you will love this journal as much as I did!
Instructor will provide for use in workshop:
- rubber stamps
- gel medium
- a vast abundance of washi and deco tape
- collage ephemera
- transparencies
- rub-ons
- a plethora of pens and markers for you to experiment with
- a large variety of my favorite stencils
- all supplies necessary to make and complete the project except what is noted below
- much, much more (I don't travel light!)
Students should bring:
- scissors
- bone folder
- metal ruler
- one chip/bristle brush to glue
- waxed paper
- paper towels (or a rag to glue with)
- permanent ink pad (like Staz-On)
- water container (to clean your brush)
- small selection of favorite collage ephemera (background papers, focal images, etc… It is fun to bring your own favorites to make your project more personal)
- baby wipes (optional but nice to have!)
