Pneumatics used to make pop-up toys by Year 3 as part of the Telling into Writing, Treasure Island work
Made from poster board, colored with pastels, gesso, Twinkling H2O's, gloss medium, masking tape and collage art.
This butterfly card is for 2011 Hero Arts January Challenge.
I was inspired by the Hero Arts 2011 Catalogue page 9- the card on the right coner of the page.
The masking technique was used in the center panel. The butteryfly image (CL431) was masked with a piece of paper, then the friend definition (CG125) was stamped on.
Finally, I used the "sending smiles message" set (CL490) for the inside to finish the card.
Really really love masking tapes! I use them a lot in making cards(In this card, I used them for part of background, the birds, roses...).
Thanks for looking!
stamp: Hero Arts (CL431,CG125, CL490)
ink: Ranger Distress Ink
paper: Hero Hues folded card (PS548)
others: spellbinders die, masking tape (MARK's), paper flower
Oops! Learn from our mistakes! Someone stuck up signs around the school using masking tape, and now the residue and stains are all that remain. An expensive lesson, as painters need to be brought in to repair the damage. This photo is going into our school "do not" file for when they give an orientation to new staff and students.

Here Dave assembles wiring, wearing his lucky Ramones t-shirt.
Dave is lining up the 18 gauge speaker wire I soldered to the HVST.echnology X43 audio exciters, and inserting the ends in the Lepai LP-269FS amplifier. Later I'll staple a mat board rib across the back of the box and Dave will use cotton string to tie a very neat wire harness to it. This will keep slack wires from buzzing against the corrugated plastic. Dave will also place another piece of corrugated plastic over the back of the box, and bolt the amplifier to it.
In a previous step, I removed the amplifier circuit boards from their cases using a DeWalt DW920K-2 cordless screwdriver and a plain ol' manual one. (We noted a variety of fasteners used to assemble the Lepai amplifiers. One or two did not have the full complement.) Dave used a Hakko FX-888 soldering station to solder pigtails of 22 gauge, four conductor telephone station wire to the amplifiers.
Because when I have a bitchin' tool, I look for excuses to use it. The DeWalt might have been overkill, but not the Hakko. Not so much, anyway. To be clear, I'm speaking for myself, not Dave; but I hope I never use a Radio Shack pencil soldering iron again.
After manually removing the ends of the sleeves containing the four conductors, Dave stripped them using my new Neiko 01924A self-adjusting wire and cable stripper.
Again, the Bitchin' Tool Rule: I will never again use ordinary wire strippers or a pocketknife outside of an extreme survival situation, e.g. fixing the Kon Tiki shortwave radio after a shark eats the Neiko.
After Dave soldered the pigtails to the amplifier circuit boards, I notched the back plates of the amplifiers with a nibbling tool to accommodate them. This was much less tedious than any lower-tech alternative. So much so that I'm not sure the Bitchin' Tool Rule even applies. What else would you use? A jeweler's saw and tiny files? Then I reassembled everything. Dave reminded me to reset the zero positions of the plastic knobs, pointing out that each one had a nearly invisible dimple imprinted on it.
In this step, Dave crimped connectors to the other ends of the station wire and attached these to illuminated industrial push-button switches. Power hijacked from the amplifier circuit board lit the switches when we plugged in the amplifier power supplies. Dave correctly predicted that this would trigger the ooh-bright-and-shiny-object reaction in viewers, encouraging them to press the button.
The switches turned the amplifiers on and off. That was key. Each time one of these amplifiers powers up, it begins to loop through any audio files on inserted digital media. Thus, the amplifier would play a Gerald Desmond Bridge sound sample on a USB key when switched on, and would continue to play that file until switched off. This approach gave us an inexpensive, monolithic equivalent to discrete amplifiers and MP3 players.
haha she'll kill me for putting this up, I think it's cute.
As soon as I lifted up the camera she started laughing, and covering her mouth so the tape wouldn't come off, got this photo straight after though =)
She also didnt want her plaster to show in the photo"Dove", so we were able to cover it with the ribbon.
I'm seriously having such a boring weekend, I spent my day getting my hair cut, then I was on the computer, not really doing anything, I watched my dad in stitches laughing at "Total Wipeout USA", called Eoin, made dinner, but mostly I counted how many hours I was awake, and each time I was shocked that I'd done nothing in that amount of time.
on the plus side, I found my grandads old camera today, hopefully I'll be able to get it to work, I love it. When I was a kid I use to pretend to take photos with it, and as I got older and got into art, I use to draw it alot.
So bring on tomorrow, atleast I have plans to take photos of a Paddys Day float in the making, at the very least it should be interesting to see, and then I'll have an evening of editing :D
The Team America Super Stunt Dirt Bike, my favorite childhood birthday present. I got it when I turned 7 on Jan 13, 1981, and still play with it 29 years later! The winder/launcher/crank eventually broke apart, but duct tape has held it together over the decades.
The internet barely mentions this toy as existing, and there are barely any pictures. When I posted a low-quality YouTube video of it in action, I eventually received requests to do a photo shoot of the toy, to prove that it existed. So here they are, world! Enjoy!
By the way, the plastic gears in the winding unit make a decent fingernail file. And the Rugrats sticker was added in 2010, simply because I like to put stickers on things and had a sticker laying around.

OK after the last post, gotta admit I couldn't sleep with a red perfect pencil in a black cap. Why not just tape the pencil as well coz MT masking tape is so thin the pencil still fit to the cap nicely.
Isn't it wonderful? Everything in black and silver, beneath it wood and metal. Now I can sleep and sketch more prototypes tomorrow.
