I took an online class thru Edmonton Calligraphy Guild On paper weaving with Suzie Beringer. She had an abstract w/c piece done on Arches Text Wove. She then printed out some text, overlapping and repositioning the copy to get a more textural look to the words then cut strips of it and wove it thru her w/c piece in one area. Striking.
Size: both 5"w x 6"h
While she was working I was doing basic weaving using geli off cuts... On black textured cardstock, in a greeting card format, created my weaving cuts (one with basic straight cuts the other with a wavy cut) and inserted strips of the geli print papers. I like the results. Added some text to finish of the card. Just 4 U on the straight cut card and Hello on the wavy cut card. On the inside of the wavy lined card I colored the visible strips with a black ZIG Writer. The basic weave on the other card I left as is gluing down the ends for neatness.
