Ziggy zaggy

This week I have been playing with some more with concertina or zigzag books!

I had previously made some monoprints on mixed media paper so that I could make books. Here's the pile of prints and left over collage bits.

I used my own poem A Poetic Conundrum on this one.

I made this into a beach themed book and used words from a scrapbook paper pad

This third one used the words of another of my poems

You can read the poems on this post: Oh my word!

Thanks for joining me today.

Happy Easter

Gelli Print Series

Recently I took part in a Gelli Print swap in a group I belong to on Facebook: Gelatin Printing Enthusiasts.  We were asked to swap up to a maximum of 10 gelli prints.  I was paired with a lady in Bulgaria.

I decided that I would make a set of 10 prints in a series.  I sorted out three 12"x12" stencils, six 9"x12" stencils and six 6"x6" stencils.  I found a couple of plastic canvas shapes and limited myself to a colour palette.

Then I played.

 

I think I like this one best.

I scanned them into my computer so that I could print them out and use them too.

And the best thing about Gelli prints is that if Irena doesn't like any of them she can always print over the top.  Yeah!

Thanks for stopping by.
