In this workshop you will make a 10×6 inch sample using different mixed media techniques. You will experiment with screwed up paper to make your collage background which you can hide words and images in. You will make a realistic butterfly for your sample by using the packing tape transfer technique. You will also use tea bag paper to be able to transfer in hand sewing flowers, cow parsley or an image of your choice (tutor also has a folder of patterns you can use) and to finish the sample off you can include 3D butterflies.
Please bring with you:
Scissors
Glass Head Pins
