Schnookie's birthday isn't until later in vacation, but what's a better way to kick off a week away from work than with opening presents? I had wanted to get her a box set of CDs of John Zorn music but there wasn't one. So I figured, what the heck, why not make my own little box sets? I picked out a few CDs from some of her favorite artists and then packaged them each with their own canning-style label. I was particularly pleased when one of her other presents arrived with some extra tissue paper that perfectly matched the brown label I used. I was such a jerk, demanding that Schnookie hold off on unveiling what was in this Trevor Dunn Box Set until I had a chance to photograph my master gift styling. :D

Our cat got to open his Chrismast presents today. Next year, I'm just buying him a big pile of tissue paper--by far his favorite thing to get!

Space set-up/installation. Starting image.
A long black tissue rectangle hangs on the wall. A white 'cloud' of tissue paper is suspended from the ceiling, counterbalanced by a pair of scissors. The cloud hangs over a rectangle frame shape on the floor, made out of blank photo papers.

Ever helpful Wanda is making sure that wrapping Christmas gifts goes smoothly this year. Today in Saline, Michigan
I whipped this up out of tissue paper - so much easier than making precise cuts from paper - just fold the tissue paper around your card like you are wrapping a package!

I caught a cold on my trip but had no problem keeping tissue paper within reach! :)
A simple wash over the paper you are going to work on - I used a spary wash but anything would do - painted, inked, stained etc.
Detail of painting. Gel medium stenciled celtic knotwork to the left of her knee can be see plus texture created by tissue paper, collage elements and the underlying gesso.

Here are the pinatas in which the tissue paper is drying on them, getting ready for them to be decorated.
... when a tissue paper and a rubber band can do the job more or less the same?
I was a little bored today, so I was rummaging through years of junk that I've been collecting over the years when the red tissue paper caught my eye.
I fastened it around my D50's flash with a rubber band and presto! My very own ghetto filter! I had to pump up the strength of the flash though, from 1/8th of its power to half.
i made this card for my mom's birthday. (it's a craptastic photo...the original had very low light, and i fiddled with it in iphoto to ill effect. the color is fairly accurate, but the glue is not so apparent.)
anyway, over the last year or so i've been determined to make nearly all the cards i send to people. i've gotten very comfortable cutting out letters, but i wanted to go in a new direction for the background. i tried to do a sort of modern collage-type thing -- like making a tree out of random parts of magazine ads that are brownish and greenish -- but it was pretty bad. so i thought i'd go the tissue paper route (this is from a boden package).
