i'm trying something a little different for a chunky book swap over on atcsforall in a heart shaped chunky book swap. this is pushing the guidelines a bit, but we'll see if the cool factor overrides the 'follow directions better, nicci' factor.

the little paper and watercolor queen is 3.5 inches(ish) with long embellishment made of waxed thread, buttons, a charm that says 'believe', and some handmade paper beads.

all media are as follows: watercolor paper, ink, pen, tape, handmade paper beads, buttons, watercolor, waxed thread, charm & glue.

i'm working on 3 more of these queens and another little duel heart shaped painted one. will post more images as they're finished. =)

hmmm. i wonder if people would spring for these as one of a kind scrapbook embellishments or journal embellishments...

I'd be thrilled to receive one of those in a swap. It's unexpected and that equals love in my books these days.

I definitely think that there is a growing market for one-of-a-kind, handmade scrapbooking/journaling embellishments in this age of big box stores.

I think that there is also a market for classes/tutorials for these types of things.
