I can now share the card I made using some of the Momigami papers I made a week or so ago. Momigami is a technique of Japanese kneaded paper. My local swap group had this as our theme for February. Here are the papers I made - you can check out some of the tutorials on YouTube.
I used hand lotion to make these papers. Three thinner papers and one thicker double sided scrapbook paper. I used bits of all of these to make the card that was sent to Carol.
The background piece was the thicker paper. I kept all the scrunched up areas and ran a teal green Distress Oxide over the paper. I used two of the thinner papers to make the flowers (Altenew's Petite Mountain Aven Layering Dies) and the flower centres were cut from the third paper. I die cut a gold frame from Gina K Master Layouts 12 and added the flowers. Finished with a foiled sentiment and some glitter dots. The papers feel so soft and fabric like. And I was delighted on how the card turned out.
First week back at work has been hard! Getting up 2 hours earlier than the past few week has taken a toll.... I'm shattered. Luckily tomorrow is a non work day and I'll be able to sleep a bit later.
I'm sitting typing this while thunder is rumbling all around - have had some heavy rain too... but very warm and humid.
