©linda germain 2012 collaged card approx 4.5″ x 5.5″ |
I have a big box of papers on the floor of my studio. It contains “failed” or unfinished prints. This little card has
- a tea bag background,
- some stamping with a block made of hair ties/elastics
- and a few hearts cut out of failed gelatin prints.
I am reminding myself to allow for fearless experimentation. Funny how I have to keep reminding myself. Happy Printing!

Making cards reminds me of doing finger exercises at the piano: a small gesture that gets your hand moving and imperceptibly builds strength. I love it. Love this card, too.
your work reminds me that there’s no such thing as a failed print! And I do need that reminder. Beautiful card!
thanks for your thoughts my fellow artists. Enjoy!
