Workshop Description

I can't throw anything away; it's quite a problem for me. I end up with piles of leftover stuff until I no longer have any room to work. The way I have come to terms with my predicament is my Therapeutic Completion Paper. After I have finished a project, I take all the leftovers, bits of paper, fabric, paint or embellishments and glue them into a solid sheet.

This process produces a wonderful soft feel of fabric and an amazing amount of depth as you see into the layers. The pages of the book come alive with texture and color. Come learn this wonderful technique that will turn your scrap box into a fabulous journal. We'll spend one class creating wonderful papers, from thin transparent papers to thick textural papers. We'll use stamping, mono-printing and resist techniques to decorate our book pages. These will all dry over night then the next class we'll use these papers to create a unique fiber bound and embellished Squishy book.
