Necklace and papers

I'm still making Suffolk puffs or yo-yos to some. The centres of these are made from an old Nestle biscuit tin that I've cut into circles, domed in my dapping block and drilled holes around the edges and added brass beads. This is another one for the exhibition.

I still have to add beads and chain to the top.

A close up of the centres.

I add stamping to the base of some of the papers I add to my journals, usually I use my small hand carved stamps but I've now made some foam stamps that are A4 in width so I can stamp in one go.

The stamps are double sided.

These are some papers I've decorated to add to the journals.

Recently I purchased a Gelli Plate from The Thread Studio, instead of making my own gelatine plate, it's great. I love the marks you get from the gelatine plate you make yourself but the Gelli Plate is so much easier to clean and it lasts forever if you look after it and it also creates great prints. The one above is on paper and has been printed twice.

This is another print on paper.

This was printed twice with the design being in gold paint.

Happy creating.
