Altered Playing Cards

Another mixed media project I am working on is "altered playing cards".  I took a deck of cards (I chose flash cards as they are a bit larger than regular playing cards) - so, 52 cards, 52 weeks of the year.  Each week I am embellishing a card - with stencil, drawing, writing, painting - whatever I am inspired to do at that particular moment.  Mine seems to be turning out to be a mini-diary. Hopefully, looking back at the deck, I will remember some special moments of 2015.

Mixed Media Book

I did an online class of Donna Downey's (mixed media artist from North Carolina) - you make a book out of muslin fabric.  Believe it or not, you cover the muslin with joint compound (normally used with drywall).  Then you add whatever stencils, inks, image transfers or writing that you wish.  I transferred my own images.  Super fun book to make.  Here are a couple of my pages:
