so in December I created a bunch of folders in my email and set up filtering.
I totally signed up for this and forgot I had all this forwarding going on and didn’t check all my new folders. oops.

I did end up doing a second one.

Side note: Anyone ever had a problem with your waxed thread discoloring your paper? I’m trying to figure out what happened in the spine here, and I’m wondering whether it’s that.

Oh, weird. Sometimes I use dental floss, cheap & so strong. No wax!

Wasn’t sure I’d get to today’s prompt, but I’m glad I did.

I bought the Graffiti Love class from Alisa Burke.
The first step is messy backgrounds. Most of these papers had leftover paint on them already.

Then add black & white marks - I’ve only used black.

Then I made my own stencils and masks using index cards & file folders. I need to make smaller ones, tho, as these take up too much space.

On to the next steps!
