Bootleg Screening...

Lately I have been feeling really crafty, so I decided to make some fairly really simple screen prints- on top of all the other stuff I've been doing!

I miss printing, and never really had a chance to learn how to make a silk screen, so I decided a ghetto screen would work.

By using a needle-point frame, you can stretch some extra stockings over the frame to create a screen!

Start off with a simple design

Trace it onto the stocking

Then with Modge-Podge paint over the area
 you do not want the paint/ink to come through
and let it dry

Press the color throught the screen with an old
credit card, cardboard or squeegy

and....tada!!! You have a screen printed design!!

This is the easiest way to design your own cards and have fun mass producing them, lol!

Travel Seaside

     This last May I've taken a trip to Seattle; to relax to get away from work and to TRAVEL. I love to travel, and have taken it upon myself to see the world as little or as much as I can afford... Which isn't often. So here are some photos of my adventure.

I didn't want to leave- the weather was so gorgeous! But, I was ready to get back to my studio and refresh what I had left off doing since I left school.
