Creative Cue #35 – Sponge

Posted in Creative Cue, Home, tagged Creative Cue on September 1, 2010 | 1 Comment »

A pile of synthetic cosmetic sponges, which I use for applying paints or dyes to things……definitely not make-up! Original photo altered with PSE8.

Another rainy day here….spent stitching things and with a dye-pot cooking away in the kitchen. I shall post the results in a day or so.

Firstly – Pocket. This was a piece of a shirt made of hemp that I dunked in the walnut dye pot, to see what it would do (not much actually). The hankie is a lovely hand made one which was a gift.

Secondly – Break …….what happens when one inadvertently hits a tree with a ride on mower.

This week’s effort…..if wondering what this is all about, then check here. I am doing this using photographs and Photoshop Elements 8, with which I just play, hoping to learn a bit more by trial and error. Sometime, when the day contains 48 hours, I hope to use some, or parts of these stitch designs!
