Paper collage collection

I like quick and easy art work to end my day being happy.

every time mom in low visit our boys, she buys lots of Dunkin’ Donuts.

everyday I got 2-4 donuts paper bags.

so, I cut the clean parts of the paler bags and paste it as I like.

unlimited donuts bags in my hand.

even I have the timhortin donut shop bags too after the traveling Quebec.

this donuts bags collage work become my one of collage series collection now.

this “fresh” paper was the apple picking bag.

DIY card making at Paper source store.

in March, the paper source had a desk of scrap papers, stamps glues. It was for making card by your self desk.

I enjoyed to make the card using beautiful paper pieces in that store.

for Easter, I cut just egg like shapes ( or stone like shape) and glued on the card.

mosaic style collage

I keep the card boards just in case kids want to make something suddenly.

but after kids messed the cardboard, I chopped the large cardboard box in to small square.

then collage for the month of July.

of course still using the used wrapping papers too.

"love and peace "?

made miss spelling? Yes and no. I love the small last pieces of the work.🤣

Fi na lly!!!

finally I completed the large house quilting piece.

this quilting painting took me 20min

but actual pieces took me almost 10years 😂

when I had long driving travel . I took this quilt with me and keep sewing in the car.

these houses are pocket . So I can use as a wall pocket organizer.

yes , each has a tenant now.

now I want to make more patchworks❣️

I made my books!

Hi! I am a paper book lover. Always want to read and see the actual paper book , not e-book.

Also I wanted to make book by my self.

last week I finally learned simple book binding technique.

This is the first book I made.

We used large sketchbook paper. It is not best paper to use water color. But the sketch paper is easy to fold and bind.

The art teacher said I can make any shape.

So I challenged to make interesting pages. Book cover page can be fish shape, Why not?

Each page has different type of papers.

watercolor envelope gives me the space to the secret landscape inside .

I like this envelope page ideas.

now open !

I made one more book .

“Book”

I cut out the “book” then used in the another book.

and thinking what’s next.

First book of the main book, I used the bird origami illustration I found in the newspaper advertisement.

after I paste it, I realized this ads is for the funerals. Oh!

next page, paste the leftover of friends cut. looks like the soul travel away to the ocean.

book making journey will continue.
