Craft Barn Q meets Moo-Mania and More


Craft Barn's challenge letter this fortnight is "Q." 

I had lots of ideas, so combined a few of them to ask the ultimate QUESTION, my chosen word.

This is the backing of an old Susan Wingert K & Company sticker sheet.  I cut it in half so it would extend the length of the page.  The windows are what were left over from dimensional stickers I used on my Christmas tip-ins.  They certainly qualify for the "Use Your Scraps" challenge at Moo-Mania and More.

I backed the windows with another scrap, this time a piece of construction paper.    I also used old postage stamps, which I don't consider scraps, but works of art in their own right.  You can see some of the questions I ask in these windows.

Query, Queen, Quip, Quiz, Quote, and Questionnaire were all featured, but the main Q is


Question.  Here is the definition as defined by Merriam-Webster.


One final look at this fun example of Q as I show I used postage stamps, the remains of dimensional stickers, a piece of construction paper, a stencil for the Q, and a brown Zig ink pen.

Thanks for joining me at the Craft Barn as I was able to visit and comment on everyone's art last time except for one person whose comments are set up so I have to join G+ just to leave a comment, which I simply can't do.

Thanks also for this fun challenge at Moo-Mania and More, where it's always fun to join their challenge.

  2. I like the control on this page. All the little boxes- but not all square boxes, so its not too controlled. I know that control isn't quit the right word I mean, but in my half asleep head, its all I can think of. What a great page for the letter Q. Hope you are having a good day when you read this. Hugs to you!

  3. This is such a good page for "Q Question", with your intriguing questions. Your artwork is always so different.
    I like that you have included the dictionary definition of "Question" too, we think we know what a word means but it often has addition subtle other meanings.

  6. Very original and creative page you created.
    Looks like you put lots and lots of thought into it too.
    I just heard a sound bite the other day that said a four year old asks on average of 437 questions each day LOL
    Random bit of info and how they determined that...
    well never mind. I will forget that question.
    Great use of scraps as you are always so good about doing.
