What can you do with a papier maché torso, a glass jar, some fabric and a few stamps... well... here's your answer.
Oh [fine print on} and you will need Isa'sArt sewing expertise too [fine print off]
(I know I don't.... but boy, would I like to have this in my house!!).
I know it's not something that everyone will tackle this afternoon, and Isa did tell me "if you don't want to post it, that's ok", but how could I do that? It's too beautiful to miss, don't you think?
After so much work, it would be a shame not to have it on display on this blog ;)
I wonder if Woodware would ever have thought that their stamps would be used that way :o)
Here's a few details for you...
Oh do I love that little quote "Have a fabulous Day!" and the lovely little roses too. Both coming from a Woodware clear stamp plate: TAG.
So my next thought was... "what to do with it?" ... a tag or label.. ok... but I had to take it further...
Wanted to alter a glass jar but bigger, take it to the next level... wanted some sewing involved... so ...
I picked a glass jar, but also added the papier maché torso to it
I used the "have a fabulous day" to make a kind of necklace but also used it to stamp on the fabric for one of the dress layers... can you see it? look closer...
and a few hours later...after a loooot of sewing and layering... voilà
and I hope you all ....
For her sample, Isa used:
Just oh sooooo creative. . . how does she do it??
