Passion Para Papel

Who doesn't love paper? Can you truly imagine a paperless world? Yes, I know we do need to be kinder and wiser about our paper use, but as an artist, I LOVE paper! All papers! Fancy pants paper and recycled paper. I especially love to re-purpose throw away papers.

My girl Rebecca of Recuerda Mi Corazon has decided to make a blog crawl dedicated to all things paper. Do check out her blog tomorrow, (Sept. 30th post) she will be featuring links to everyone who is sharing their amor for paper!

I thought this was a perfect opportunity to link up some of my favorite paper tutorials as well as show off a little mixed media number I made with paper scraps and fabric scraps to make a one of a kind paper/fabric collage. I made this on Sunday!

Omg, this project was so much fun. I am planning to turn it into a small clutch/bag.

Ok, now for some paper tutorial love!
Loteria Dress Cards
Easy Brown Bag Tutorial

Happy Creating!

Hi Yoli. I love your mixed media and for it to be a clutch purse, wow! Your profile picture looks different. You looked great before but now you are looking ah shall we say, "Extravagant." Great photo and I'll stop by Rebecca's. Take care.

A paperless world indeed!

I couldn't live without paper .... but there is way to much junk mail in my mailbox and I have too many phonebooks for flower pressing alone.

Thank you for the wonderfully simple and ingenious ways to create beautiful things from the lowly "throwaway" papers. I always need inspirations and reminding!

I especially love the recycled envelope tutorial!

Simple everyday items, used to please a number of people for different reasons. Envelopes, brown bags and art, oh my!
Thanks. This is so cool and creative.

Peace.
I love the fabric collage. It is truly beautiful. The images are striking and the use of mixed media is interesting and colorful. Thank you for the tutorials! This is my first visit to your blog. I had a great time!
