After creating some beautiful alternative gelli plate prints, using Cecilia Swatton's amazing stencil designs, (exclusive at Stencil Girl Stencils) this question always seems to arise: What do you use these papers for? And I always have an answer.
There are many uses, depending on the type of paper that I recycled. The list is long and includes creating bound art journals, but this week I used these beautiful painted papers to create something new: "Art Jewelry".
Easy and lightweight! These take only a few supplies such as: eyelets, hand punches for the shapes and rounded corners, Glossy Accents if you want the paper to look like polished stone, a cropodile tool to create holes and set eylets, plus miscellaneous jewelry parts to create earrings and pendants such as these.
But since nothing is allowed to go to waste, even the negative cut-out shapes are put to use. Here they were used to create some fun bookmarks to give as gifts. Just need to pick up some tassles of tie some raffia through the eyelet and they will be finished.
