Seeking Adventure - Hybrid Page - Print on Fabric

Description
This was a little mini project that was walked through in detail in our Pixels, Paper and Paint Subscription

I used the SEEK Mixed Media Project Kit which is print ready - link below :

This project combines simple digital edits with a light, tactile collage and is a lovely way to include your own photos in your art books without overthinking it or hurting the originals -

  1. Gather your photo, and Collage and / or Scrapbooking Supplies
  2. Digitise your photo
  3. If you are printing on fabric like me, prepare your print file (or you could use glue to do an image transfer technique but I experimented on printing on fabric) - I added artsy marks, image transfer and a stamp to my digitised photo and prepped it ready to print onto a scrap piece of fabric
  4. If printing on fabric like me prepare your canvas for print - I made a very rough collage with some copy paper, a bit of a ledger sheet and glued on some fabric ensuring it was all sturdy enough to pass through the printer . . .
  5. Next Step was printing the digital image onto the collage with fabric and then dressing it up with a few more elements from the Kit
Ok, this is SO cool! Printing on fabric?!?! Now I need to try that too! :giggle I love your stacked collage pile underneath too!
 
@Karen it worked out quite well if it was thin fabric that could be glued down quite flat, a little risky but hey what the heck lol!! I used a piece of copy paper and added a torn ledger bit and then the thin cotton on the top, tried to have it all as flat as possible so it could go through the printer
