Not so unwell, so playing with some different paper

Apologies I've been unwell with a bad winter lurgy for a couple of weeks, and I was stern with myself when one day I thought I might play at "making" and then I was somewhat worse. My deadline was "nothing paper dusty" until this coming Monday. But I saw this idea a couple of days ago, so yesterday I fiddled with some stamps on some elderly tissue wrap and today, played with the masking paper....

This is Sunday and I've just had a lovely time printing things onto the masking paper...

R: is the actual cardboard sticker type objects 

L: is it printed onto the masking paper, so it's now actually see thru' in places.

Looking forward to playing some more: adding to forthcoming books

R: is the collage print on ordinary p/copy paper

L: on the masking paper 

the band in the middle has to do with how the original item was too narrow for the masking paper

Now this is a bit different; I owned a shop way back when, and we bought our tissue paper in a huge packet...it never all got used, and although I've used it here and there; never seriously dented the supply.

It used to be solid cream coloured but it's got a bit of a vintage look now...

So an idea gleaned from the net, had me stamping it with various stamps and coloured inks

I like the effect...

I tried it in my copier, oops the copier didn't like it, as it's much lighter than the masking paper

But I think if I had another supply of something, it might work...

Different ideas:

Gleaned a few other ideas over the last 10 days when unable to "make" but they need different supplies which I'm looking forward to working with...

Roll on Monday

that's tomorrow!
