Edge or No Edge?
I started making this picture for Kristina Horner’s things found in space that don’t belong in space contest, but stars take a lot longer to draw than I anticipated. I saw some other people made No Edge jokes, but despite that and the contest being over I still, of course, finished my drawing.
I used black paper and drew an outline in white pencil crayon. The bottom and grid of space are also both done in white pencil crayon. I used slight amounts of other pencil crayon colors to give a bit of a textured look. The majority of the stars were drawn with a silver gel pen, but I also used a variety of colors of triplus gel-liners and metallic markers. The largest silver bits were made with a paint pen.
Anyways, Enjoy!
Some feather stamps I made
EDIT: I have now opened an etsy shop called Cool Stuff I Want to Buy, you can buy stamps like this in the Stamps – Nature section of the shop!
To make this stamp I used a design I’d drawn in Photoshop and printed it out at the appropriate size. Before the ink set I transferred it to the rubber by simply rubbing the back of the paper with my fingernail. Then I outlined in pencil and carved out around the shape. I usually carve out the outline and then cut out the rest of the areas I want blank.
Then I made a print for my wall!
I also made a dftba themed one a while ago.

Northern Lights – felt tip pens, jell pen, and pencil crayons
Another peek at the page-a-day calendar I made my boyfriend. So cute.
Anatomical Cross-Sections Made with Quilled Paper by Lisa Nilsson
So ridiculously cool. This really makes me want to try out making something of my own from quilled paper. I have seen the technique in the past but this is definately the neatest thing I’ve seen made with it.
P.S. I am constantly having to prevent myself from every neat thing bookpaperscissors blogs. They’re my #1 tumblr crush with something ridiculous like 20% now, and they’re moderating a new tumblr tag #artistsontumblr. Definately very awesome, you should check it out.
