    Question, have you ever put wax over this momigami paper as a sealer? Like, use Mod Podge then use wax or tinted wax over it? I like that soft, slight sheen that waxing gives.

    Oh, I really want to try this. Just finished watching your tutorial on making the paper-cloth. I think I will look for a large picture of Frida Kahlo and print it out, make it into momigami and decoupage onto a canvas. Then, add mixed media stuff like jewellery, silk flowers, etc. Or make smaller momigami as you have with lots of bright designs. Then decoupage onto a canvas & add Frida over that. Oh, I can’t wait to try! 👏👏👍🏼👍🏼🥰🥰🥰🥰 TFS.

    Sorry if this is a stupid question; I haven’t tried yet but want to. I’ve watched a few tuts on making momigami cloth, all different ways, but my question is…where did the ‘print’ come from that you printed onto the HP paper? Thanks.

    Love this! I just discovered Momogami last week. My favs have been National Geographic pages due to intense, rich colors. Loooove your country cottage cover. You just KNIW if you went in that lovely home it would be filled with cut garden bouquets, cool antique tables, intriguing flea market finds decor, cookies baking, and a pumpkin spice candle burning.

  • @elainegonzaga2867
    @elainegonzaga2867 Před 28 dny

    I have done this with olive oil. I use colorful magazine pages, 1 and 2 sided. I dont print anything. So easy to do while watching tv. Even odd images work for this because after being treated, the image takes on an abstract look. Example: a colorful pic of a tractor or a bug or anything. Even solids take on a leatherish finish. Hope that makes sense.

    • @lzrd8460
      @lzrd8460 Před 18 hodinami

      This is the first technique I watched. The channel is ‘Book & Paper Arts’. I just love how abstract the designs get using glossy magazine pages. Last year I moved house and purged a large collection of old Martha Stewart magazines I had been saving. Why is it that every time I decide I need to purge, what ever i took to the recycle bin is something I should have saved! 😔😔😔. My friends & family all think I ‘hoard’; none of them are crafters! ☺️

    Absolutely gorgeous. I live in the redwoods too, and have just a few in my actual city lot, but the remains of a small grove to the east and west of our house. This is BEautiful, Chris. Did you originally paint the pieces that became the digitals? Or if not, what ARE they? It makes me want to make one for myself. I still don’t think my journaling habits lend themselves to a journal like this. But I so appreciate them.

I have always loved Mother Mary as well and have kept from my childhood lots of holy cards, books, pamphlets, small statues, rosary beads etc and things belonging to my mother who passed away 5 yrs ago; she was devout all her life. Your journal is really beautiful and I’d love to make one. Thankyou for showing us. 🇳🇿😀
