When I first received Serena's Round Robin Book I was taken aback by the beauty of her Shiva pages.
The detail and the beautiful patina on metal hearts, intricate beading and sewing on her pages is outstanding.I wanted to do something to compliment her art.
Using the same palette I quilted an indian Sun face fabric onto the next page.Then I added bling with sequins,the word SHINE in glitter and added sparkling tulle on top.
The following page:Butterfly Journey I did in similar colors and covered with matte tulle. There is a key attached to the Butterfly page.
HMMMM I started thinking "Hey that looks like the key to my back gate"...
it's not of course. That would've been funny though.
There are many other beautiful pages in Serena's book.What a pleasure it has been to work in this. It is going in the mail.
Both your pages and her pages are so beautiful and complement each other so well!
ReplyDeleteWow! I wish I could be so creative. I've never been able to do things like that. They are just beautiful, your's and Serena's. I would love to be able to have a book like that. Great work. Have a great weekend Gemma, take care.
ReplyDeleteGemma, your pages are gorgeous and compliment Serena's perfectly. Your creative spirit shines through these pages.
ReplyDeletethe sun looks beautiful!!!! and you sure achieved your goal. Looks great together.
ReplyDeleteYour page was a perfect compliment, Gemma...both very creative and beautiful pages!
ReplyDeleteHow lovely all those pages are -- and obviously from the heart. Making a butterfly body out of a key is so inspired -- I'm thinking now of mixing some of my favorite metaphors, unlocked doors and metamorphosis. :)
ReplyDeleteGemma, I received the postcard you sent and I was very happy to receive it. Thank you very much! It's one of those days when nothing seems to be going right and then ...pow...wow...alakazammmm. :D Well you know what I mean. Thank you for your very nice comments about the bangle and I shall return the gesture in the days to come. Take care and enjoy.
ReplyDeleteGemma, you are such a true artist, always finding beauty and always thinking of new ways to highlight it. Gorgeous pages!
ReplyDeleteW0W! A key for a butterfly's body! What a great idea...you are so creative, I wish I could page through that book.
