Silk, Stone & Cinnabar Frames
From photo ephemera to finished product can take hours, days, or even weeks to accomplish. This one has taken a little time each day for several days in order to make a finished or at least somewhat useable product.
All items used were in the Public Domain, meaning copyright free. However, if my work is to maintain its integrity, I would very much like to keep this free for the public.
Both online and off, a decent free image can be a very difficult item to either find or be able to use. (Most of the ones offered via download here at PPS are 300dpi or 300px. That's a setting of 300 pixels per square inch.)
Below, you will see how I have offered the basis of lovely floral and butterfly silk embroidery, along with jade dragon "buckles," turned now into buttons, a cinnabar or lacquerware plate, and a carved ivory chrysanthemum flower. The frames may be freely decorated using the accessories I've added, or with anything else that might suit a person's fancy. All of it has a refined Asian flavor which I personally really do enjoy. The satin stitch can be quite a challenge for me, and so I view each embroidery stitch involved with a keen eye and a healthy amount of respect.
The colors have been refreshed a little bit on each item in this little set, and then made to fit the color scheme as a whole. This should print well enough as a JPG, yet also offered is a set in traditional Digital PNG format for the Digi Scrapping crowd. (Please see the links below)
I do hope that you will enjoy this Chinese journey with your
Happy Creativity!
NOTE: As usual, I have used half inch borders on all four sides. An even narrower margin could work even better for you.
