Ok Ok its been awhile since I have been here.
But I have been working on a project that I really liked.
American Craft Magazine asked artist if they would like to take some of their Vintage Photo's and use them however they wished.
After receiving my photo's and looking at all the wonderful work that had been done, my thought was how to preserve the art, and how to inspire more creativity.
So I bought a young girls sun dress and distressed it by taking out the color.
Then I transfered the photo's onto the dress, added crochet and buttons. Stitched by hand and then after much delay,( because I hated the thought of cutting up these photo's) I cut and folded some of the photo's into butterflies and attached them to the dress.
It came out very whimsical and fun. I can almost see her dancing in a field of wild flowers in the summer.
Thanks for looking...
