Damask Tissue Flowers - Paper Artsy Fragile Papers Challenge

I am so happy to be part of a new Semester at Paper Artsy! The New Year sees changes in the format of the blog and the challenges, which will now be fortnightly and will be set to a theme. The first theme is Fragile Papers - Vellum, Book Pages, Dictionary Pages, Tissue, Mulberry Paper, etc. I am kicking off with a recycled reed diffuser bottle using some of the wonderful damask tissue paper sold by Paper Artsy:-



I hope you will join in the challenge if you are inspired by the theme or any of the designers featured. There is a fab prize! You can see all the details here.

  2. Really pretty project. Love the recycling aspect, so many people pay for 'Clearly for Art' when lots of packaging behaves in the same way. I don't really follow the PA blog but you certainly have kicked off things with great style x

  5. This looks wonderful and some brilliant recycling taking place.
    Flowers are something I associate with you so it seems apt that you chose to work with a flower theme for your tutorial - brilliant work.
