fabricated


I made my first fabric canvas. Fabric+gesso= easy!
 

Then stitched some off cuts to make new paper
This is really fun!

Then back to the trusty Cricut.

I think the background is  a bit busy for the cutout..

and it needs a strong contrasting background.

Maybe this bird looks better on the blue?

    Snap...I made some canvas as well. Piece of sheeting and some primer slapped on and that's as far as I've got! Your little bird looks nice. I like it both non the contrast fabric and the blue which is a very pretty shade.

    The birds look stunning, and it looks like you had a lot of fun creating the paper in the first place.

    That looks like a messy process but fascinating. What is the machine? will be good to see the finished thing - I like the yellow background for the bird!

      Hi the machine is a Cricut and basically is an computer cutter. Best thing I ever bought and have found SO many fun things to do with it over the years. Have settled for the yellow background too!
