Passion For Paper-Tricia Raleigh (martin)

Ok so I thought Umbrella Day was this Wednesday and turns out it was last. Feb. 10th... I love drawing and designing umbrellas with paper. I was commissioned to do some illustrations for a 5th grade science book a few months back. Not only was I excited to be doing the illustrations but one of the illustrations was for some simple umbrellas. Since it is still February, I figured it is still ok to share my enthusiasm for Umbrella Day.

Hope everyone has a great Valentines Day Sunday! I finally had a chance to post a few project I have been working on. All the paper is Basic Grey. To make this bird I just looked at one of Basic Grey illustration and turned into a larger paper image. The tag I used for this was pulled out of some of my old stash. It is a Little Black Dress Design Unbutton. I inked it, sanded and then stamped my image. I sure miss LBDD products. They have so many possibilities.
