Playing with foam

Pieces of spraypainted foam in a cd-case.

These foam strips are painted with fabric paint (not the biggest success because the paint wouldn't hold). I then wound yarn around the rolled up strips.

Balls

These balls I made from painted cheesecloth (years ago! - I like to recycle). I made a template from cardboard and outlined it on the fabric. I discovered that the back was more interesting than the front, so I used that.

Collage cards

In the summer I'd painted fabric by using plant leaves (poppies and eucalyptus). I've made the first three collage cards with it.

Stamp

Some eraser offcuts and a rainbow dye inkpad makes a great border!
Initially I was trying to make a bird stamp, to illustrate a poem, but I wasn't happy with the result. And when I glanced at the offcuts I saw new possibilities.
