I've always been intrigued by masks. Google images brought up some beautiful Venetian masks. Some people find them creepy, but they can be very elaborate. I came upon this beautiful background paper in a free online scrapbook kit from Scrapbook Flair. It's a Mardi Gras kit that has some nice papers and masks! I'm working on a series devoted to "masks" of all kinds; one of the (too) many projects that I've got going right now.Today I was experimenting with image transfer techniques for my collages that I'll send off to the collage exchange. It's a lot of trial and error (mostly error, today) but I'm slowly finding a few cool techniques! Transferring images onto fabric is really appealing to me. I can always print them out on my fabric sheets, but I like to experiment with TRANSFERRING them TO fabric. I'm not having a whole lot of luck, but I'm getting closer. Stay tuned for my results...

Before I got married, I used to do alot of travelling and one of the locations was Venice. At that time, I too was interested in masks and I came home with a mini-collection of all sizes. But they were given away when I moved to the States (drat!!!!!).
I love masks - I could have a whole collection. I started one before but could never find any to add to them.
