Another fabric page




Above is my finished fabric page for Magda's book. It has taken me a while I must say, to a) get my mojo back and b) finish the beading. I find beading very therapeutic, although I'm not the neatest beader on the planet.

The background is made using Beryl Taylor's fabric paper instructions, my first time making it. I love how it is so flexible and feels like fabric, yet has the strenth and stiffness of paper. Hope that makes sense.

I'm also uploading this to the Embrace the Face Challenge Blog which has a theme of white. I know my background and picture isn't white, but the birdie is :-)

Thanks for looking

Please do go and check out Sulea's blog. One day, when I have more time (yes that elusive more time), i would like to be able to paint with as much detail and serenity as my friend Sulea.

And yes I was lucky enough to recieve this gorgeous painting from her today



How lucky am I to receive such a fabulous piece from the uber talented Sulea :-)
