I make all of the papers by hand in Ottawa, Canada. Marbled papers are traditionally used as endpapers for bookbinding, but they have a wide range of other uses such as collage, origami, scrap-booking, greeting cards, framing, box-making, and other paper crafts.

5x7 Paper Negative
First test of the 5.5" Cinephor on the 5x7. This focal length is definately more suited to 5x7 or 4x5.
An inexpensive gift wrapping option. I was at Michael's yesterday and was looking at the scrapbooking papers. and realized they were just big pieces of origami paper.

here it is, is a very light drawing, and some experiments with the "colouring" part XD
hugs!
Paper circles cut with my metal punches; the striped pattern paper is paste paper mounted on heavy watercolor paper.; largest circle about 3/4 in diameter. I dip each earring in Modge Podge matte or Minwax water-based Polycrylic (clear semi-gloss) before adding beads or ear post.
This is the first bit of paper piecing I've done in a long time, and it actually turned out ok! This picture doesn't really do the colours justice, unfortunately.
I had a few paper wasp nests in my garden this summer. Paper wasps are pollinators and feed on garden pests. They are not aggressive and generally mind their own business. I got super close to their nests with my macro lens and never had any reaction from them.
I would not do that with yellowjackets though :-)

Every summer paper wasps nest around the outside of the house. These in the photos are on the porch ceiling (so actually they are clinging UPSIDE DOWN, I rotated the photos to make them easier to comprehend). The nests are attended by multiple individuals but they seem to be pretty goodnatured, never bothering me or the dogs, even if I get fairly close to photograph them on the nest. At this point in the year the females are just exploring to find where to build a nest.
This is the first time I have noticed the activity shown, where one wasp gets on top of another. The one on the bottom has her wings folded over her body making the body look dark from some angles so at first I thought this was a predatory behavior between two species.
In the preceding picture the wasp that will be "mounted" adopts a submissive posture while two others "stand up" to do something: recognize each other? Then one gets on top of the submissive one, and the third one hangs around or wanders off. Often there is no third wasp, just the "dominant" and "submissive" ones.
Female paper wasps collaborate on building and guarding a nest though only one female may actually lay eggs in the nest. I don't think the males appear at the nest site, but breeding takes place before nestbuilding, elsewhere. So I'm thinking this isn't copulation. Maybe one female exerting dominance to become the one that reproduces? I need to mark them so I could track better.
More details: they build small (2-4 inches across) cup-shaped nests attached to a ceiling or inside a sheltered place like a shade, with a slender pedicel, and each nest contains >15 cells. Cells are stopped up with more paper not with the cobwebby material I have seen in pictures of the nests of some species.
I would be grateful for more information on these very interesting insects. Although observed in SW Oregon they may be European paper wasps but I'm not sure.

Lots of great artists but I didn't get all of their names.
A clever way to preserve memories is to use elements brought back from hotels (or tour tickets, etc) and incorporate them into your design.
I used the welcome envelope and matchbox in this scrapbook layout.

Paper Cut-Out.
Sara wanted me to do this cut-out for her sister. It ends up being slightly smaller than 8.5" x 11". First animal paper cut-out, think it came out okay. THE DOG IS NOT REALLY CROSS-EYED.
Two months ago I discovered such a wonderful theme like paper lightboxes! I found it very interesting and started to learn this creating style
I wanted lightboxes to be disassembled and made a way to create it with paper, cardboard & PET plastic. Picture sizes are about A4 format, total thickness is 3-4 cm
