Back into the swing of things...

Finally on top of things and have had some time for myself to think, design and create.
After a little while of deliberating over it (almost 2 years...just a little while) I have finally decided on a direction for my precious wedding album. I am returing to my mixed media roots and will be using a combination of different mediums and techniques to create what I hope to be a beautiful album to treasure for years to come.
I will be making the album from scratch and will be teaching myself (as well as I hope soon, others) the techniques of album binding. I will also be using silk, paint, painting mediums, stitches and an array of other mediums, and having a great time in the process.
I will post a photo of my starting point...bare box board at it's most primitive state. I am very excited about what will form out of this basic material and a little creativity and imagination, as well as many skills I have picked up over my years of watching, learning and creating...

Printed wedding photo on silk, this will be part of the cover of my wedding album.
