A fun day !



They could be...........

Credit or Business card wallets,or makeup purse for your evening bag lol.............

Had a really interesting and enjoyable day today,my first experiments with Bondaweb,its so cheap to buy as well,such a lot you can do with it......

I decided to cut a small piece off and paint it with Lumiere metalic paints,painting it on the glue side,waited for the paint to dry then turned paint side down onto some soft white vilene then used a hot iron,WOW the effects are amazing,i will never tire of trying different techniques out,most of the time its very satifying.

The top pink one i embellished with my machine using some scraps of rovings to give it some nice wooly texture,than added the pansy fabric flower.

The bottom one was so pretty and metalic looking i didnt want to cover so just added the piece of real Turquoise.......for closures on both i used Velcro which i dye'd to match.Hope you like them !

Both wallets are lovely. I love the effects of the painted bondaweb - I must admit I have used bondaweb a lot but have never thought of painting it, thank for this idea.

Hi Pattie, Just found your blog through a Facebook post of one of your embellisher projects (the mermaid book cover). Looks like we have a lot in common and I will be back again soon to go through your blog posts in detail. Your work is Gorgeous!
I'm at mudbaymusings (art stuff and musings) and mudbayimages (free vintage images) on blogspot.

Pattie, Your wallets are so wonderfull each,gorgeus with the real turquise,and the lilac one in former post, is so fantastic, too. I don`t know what Bonda web is ? Will have to read about it-looks like lots of fun.
Hope your week-end was great ?
