I finished my BJP for February about halfway through the month, but haven't got round to blogging about it yet.
The face is yet another from a job lot I bought off Ebay, quite an attractive one I thought. The found object has a history, this time - this piece of twisted wire, along with another one, were among my late father's effects. I have no idea if he had intended to do anything with them but they have obviously been manipulated quite deliberately and I love the organic quality of the shape. It went well with the face.
I chose a mostly green palette, including one mixture that included cream, purple, pink and mauve as well. They went with the browns of the face and the copper wire. This 'design' is a lot more organic than January's, because of the way the face and the wire spoke to me.
Again it is ATC size, 2 1/2 X 3 1/2 inches, done on Lacy's Stiff Stuff and backed with ultrasuede. I used my 'signature' encrusted beading edge again.
I haven't started March's yet, because I am about 2/3 of the way through crocheting what will become a felted bag and I want to get that out of the way, but I have chosen the face cab and the found object and the colours and I'm raring to go. Next week, hopefully!
