A few Charms

I haven't done a charm swap in ages, so I thought this would be fun. The heart is made of clay and is smaller than those candy conversation hearts. Probably the smallest thing I have ever made in clay. They were fired and given a stone finish, all a little different. The other charm is a glass car fuse that I took apart and put in a bit of vintage old German bible text. I then gave it a gunmetal finish so that it wasn't so new and shiny looking. I actually had more fun making up the little cards to mount them on than the charms themselves! That was a nice brief break, but now back to "The Exquisite Corpse Project" and designing new Vessel collages. I have so many new designs in the works... can't wait to share them.

Skull and Crossbones Carved Stamp

This Exquisite Corpse Project is well underway. I am really enjoying it and am looking forward to receiving the entries from other participants in the group. We are "decorating" the backs of the pages and including contact information. I thought a carved stamp of a Skull and Crossbones would be a nice addition for the backs of mine. It's nice how the white ink prints up a rather ghostly looking image on the black card stock. I am enjoying this project so much (as are several other players) that we are thinking of continuing after this book is completed. The possibilities are just endless and need to be explored well beyond just this one book.
