Hi Everyone.
1st of the month means new challenges and today is Outlawz Twisted and ABAC Challenges and later on there will be MAWTT.
1st today is Anything But A Card for Outlawz.
This time we have a theme of
Lets Play Make Something from Childhood.
Now these paper beads bring back some memories. I made a big tin of these using old magazines and my intention was to make a hanging door curtain, which never happened by the way!!!!
I make them into Dangles for my Journals
I start with pieces of paper, either printed or magazines.
I mark 1cm intervals at top and the bottom but not in straight lines, I alternate the marks so I end up with very long triangles.
I use a quilling tool as these are very small, if bigger I would use a cocktail stick or very fine knitting needle.
Ending up with these, glue on the end.
Then I cover with Modpodge or Clear Nail varnish.
Then I store them in a takeaway box until needed.
I add different bits - beads, chain or small ephemera.
They look good hanging off journal pages and I love making them.

Now onto the Twisted Challenge.
Colour challenge
I used a digital image and an inky background from my Reverse Colouring book and scraps of offcuts, stamped sentiment and some leftover crystal art gems.
