I've been making small art pieces using scraps of cotton fabric, multi-purpose fabric, and paper that I already have on hand. Sometimes minimizing your options focuses your attention.
The top layer of this piece (blue) is Multi-Purpose Fabric that's been monoprinted many times with Stacked Journaling in layers of acrylic paint. Some of the fabric was then cut away to create a "window" for the painted water color paper that backs this piece (yellow/orange). It's about 5" x 7".
I used a second piece of the blue MPF from the above photo for this next bit of art...
(6" x 11")
... and backed it with a different piece of painted water color paper.
A third piece of MPF, painted in the same way as the pieces above but with a slightly different color palette, is also backed with a piece of water color paper, this one treated with MX dyes.
(6" x 8")
Finally some hot (pink) paper-on-paper action.
(12" x 24")
This piece was screen printed first and then had cut Stacked Journaling paper pieces mounted onto it.
Happy creating!

Judi-I am constantly amazed at your beautiful work! Your technique and style make wonderful pieces of art that I just love. I feel so lucky that you share it with us on your blog!
30I'm not sure what it is, but there is something very satisfying about these stacked works of art. I almost want to say soothing. ;^)
I need to learn about this stacked process. Peace, Mary Helen Fernandez Stewart
These are great Judi. Did you cut before the top layer of what looks like paint?
