to answer your ...Ann- I love your quill bird card!<br /><br />to answer your question about the dance tinnie on my blog - no that daughter is not a dancer (the younger one was until she had a bad accident). I made the dance tinnie to give away at the shower- so I tried to come up with themes that ladies might like. Everyone knows a dancer!<br /><br />eBeth (the other allthingspaper!)Elizabeth Parsonshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02272113895118877329noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3253515613028884429.post-33330950056544124702009-07-03T02:39:47.870-04:002009-07-03T02:39:47.870-04:00In a UofD art class years ago, taught by Sue Tessa...In a UofD art class years ago, taught by Sue Tessam of Chestertown, MD, we were trained to create cut paper designs by laying two pieces of paper on top of each other and cutting through both layers with an exacto knife. In this way, paper edges did not overlap, but fit together perfectly.<br /><br />The next step was to coat each cut piece with rubber cement, let it dry, then coat the board with rubber cement and let it dry. When the cut pieces were applied to the board, with edges touching, but not overlapping, they were immediately, irreversibly bonded together.<br /><br />I'll never forget that project. I nearly threw the thing out of my dorm room window I was so frustrated laying down those cut pieces so that the cut edges met without any of the board underneath grinning through, or any lift of the paper because one edge was inadvertently tucked under the other. It called for amazingly steady hands.Laurienoreply@blogger.com
