More Modeling Paste Fun on Paper and Board

Fabric is really my favorite medium, but sometimes paper can be fun to work with.  Gen does a lot of work with paper and had prepared more projects for the Fiber Junkies with the modeling/fiber paste. She had her computer set up with a nice tutorial she had for us to look at.

This is one of several pieces that she made for us. It is a thick layer of the paste through a simple stencil on heavy watercolor paper. I really like the design. The idea is to use it as a stamp with paint. I wish I had taken more pictures of this used as a stamp. I didn't want to get paint on mine.

Another idea was to create a picture with the paste on these small gesso covered boards.  Some of us painted the boards first.

This is the board I painted and then after it was dried, I used that tree stencil of Gen's that I really liked. There is a bit of the green paint in some of it. I liked the way the paste was sufficiently sturdy that it remains attached over the edge of the board.
