This time I chose a picture, that was taken in summer 1927 at a boardwalk in Velden at the Wörthersee.Not only
the picture in the center is one of that series, but also the images on the buttons are taken from copies of these photographs. I glued the transparent buttons onto the copy using transparent glue and cut them out after it had dried.
I just love how they all look so happy :)
Shiny happy people having fun in the summer sun.
After poking the buttons' holes from the back and through the paper I glued them on, I fixed them to the card using wire. I left long wire ends with some of the buttons to fix some chit chat stickers later. The tickets were stamped using Tim Holtz stamps and black jet archival ink.One of the sides of the Kraft core which I used as a background, was dry embossed and sanded afterwards to add some more texture.
I hope you like the image and leave you with some close-ups as usual.
Thank you for stopping by! :)

Love the photo and what you did with it, it looks fantastic! Great use of the buttons too!
ReplyDeleteWas für eine tolles KunstWerk!
ReplyDeleteDie Idee mit den Fotoknöpfen finde ich ja genial. Das schaut super aus.
Bin mir sicher, dass die ganzen Badefrösche damals genau so Spaß hatten wie wir heute.
Das strahlt so viel Lebensfreude aus. Die vielen wunderbaren Details machen Deine Arbeit zu etwas ganz Besonderem. Ich bin total begeistert liebe Claudia.
Ich bin auch soooo begeistert von den Knöpfen (ich liebe Knöpfe in allen Variationen), sie sind so besonders. Ein wunderschönes Kunstwerk, liebe Claudia.
ReplyDeleteIch wünsche Dir ein schönes Wochenende
What an absolutely gorgeous creation Claudia, love the photos and the way you have incorporated some of them into the buttons. Very inspired. Hugs, Anne x
ReplyDeleteClaudia...I love your creation! That vintage photograph is priceless! Love all of the people in it and what they were doing at the split second that photograph was snapped. I love your greenish background with the strip of embossing. So pretty. Love all of the clear buttons with the different photos in them. That is such a cool idea and those worked so perfectly into your piece! I love it all! Thanks so much for sharing this beauty with us at Simon Says Stamp and Show. <3 Candy
ReplyDeleteIt's a completely brilliant make, Claudia! The photograph is wonderful, and I adore the touch of using extra close-ups behind the transparent buttons - fabulous! The whole, warm, vintage look just glows with nostalgic, golden, summer memories - a real treasure.

Das sieht ja absolut klasse aus!!!! Superschön gestaltet!!!! Echt toll!!!! Auch die anderen Werke, die du in letzter Zeit gewerkelt hast, sind spitze!!!! Sei mir nicht böse, wenn ich nicht jedes einzeln kommentiere, aber ich bin die letzten zwei Wochen irgendwie zu nichts gekommen.... :-)
ReplyDeleteLG!
Tolle Idee mit den Fotos hinter den Knöpfen. Wie groß sind die Knöpfe? Müssen schon größer sein damit man was erkennt, oder?
