I love this community! This is my first time posting, but I've been enjoying you guys' amazing work for awhile!

Recently I've discovered the magical world of papercraft (I'd post a photo of the shelf I have covered with them but there's so many, the picture got washed out). The canon creative park has THE cutest perpetual calendar, I made one for my friend and one for myself!


His head is a box and you put the day/month cubes inside :] how cute and easy is this?

here's the link, its all free so..

Originally I printed it out at 100% and the whole thing came out about 6 inches tall. Then I resized it to 25-30% and I have the perfect little 2-3 inch desktop buddy!!


And now to show off some of my own work.. I've seen a few people post paintings before and they were all wonderful!
( first time on a real canvas :P )

Can anyone teach me to make a rag mat or link me to a tutorial?

Ideas!

[thankyouterror.livejournal.com]

Hello.

I recently started getting a ton of free magazines and catalogs, and I was wondering if anybody had ideas on things to decoupage?

I have already done a coat rack with comic book pictures, but I need some fresh unique ideas.

Thanks in advance!

Long time lurker, first time poster

Well, I finally got up the courage to post some of my stuff after being a member here forever!

This was basically just a plain papier-mache box that I decorated with craft paint, varnish, ribbon, scrapbooking stickers and rub-on transfers. Yes, I know "keepsakes" is one word, but that's the only way I could get it to fit, haha.


( craftiness this way... )

I've been making tee-shirts using permanent markers and free-hand drawing on a plain tees, getting slightly addicted!

Bookbinding

[neonstarz.livejournal.com]

A friend of mine is starting to get into bookbinding, and isn't have good luck in finding a good website that sells supplies.

I know that some of you lovely ladies have experience in binding, and I just wanted to ask if you had any recommendations of where to buy supplies.

Online stores would be best, or any large chain of stores that would be located in BC, Canada.


TIA!
