I've been looking into and attempting scrapbooking and altered art for while. It reminds me of my art school days where I constantly had a sketch/ideas book on the go, with writing, scribbles, doodles, scraps of paper, fabrics bulging out of one book or another that i took every where to collect and store inspiration to work on my next piece of work from- lovely, I really must start doing that again- note to self!
So a while ago I started to collecting various stamps, inks, papers and trinkets to make up interesting photo frames and albums of my family and friends to look back on.
This, I decided was how I wanted to style the boys plates, it would obviously have a different end result, as the layering would purely be 2 dimensional, using brush strokes and stamps, as opposed to the stamping, layering and building used in altered art- but worth a shot!
I am pleased with the results of my first plates, and the boys were thrilled. I did add little ceramic additions onto Bo's and Tobias' plates- not great for stacking though!
