Three Altered Playing Cards

 Playing around with making altered playing cards. 

I used a stencil with texture paste to create the background. 

Added color with distress inks. 

Used a image from a magazine for the focal point. 

Added some black thread under the image before gluing it down. 

Background for this created the same way. I used 

a piece of ephemera for the focal point added some cheesecloth

under it with gears on top. 

This one is my favorite of the three. 

Used a brick stencil with texture paste, and colored

it with fire brick distress ink. 

I used a piece of pattern paper with a brick wall image and

popped it over the bottom of the card. This gave the girl 

something to sit on. Added wings to the back of her. 

No update on the remodel as it rained yesterday and hubby couldn't

finish doing the subfloor cutting. 

Sarah and Jason came over for a visit so that much better

than remodeling!
