Handmade evidence bag for board game


Deadly Plot board game debuts Oct. 26 at Gallery M,| Mellwood Arts Center, 1860 Mellwood Ave.,
Louisville, Ky. 6 p.m.-10 p.m.

Greetings friends. Recently, I've been working on several additions to the Deadly Plot board game. The "evidence" bag contains items that criminals leave behind which enables detectives to get hot on their tails! For example here, a hypodermic needle, letter and news clipping. I'd sure like to get a fingerprint on a transparency somehow. All that's needed is the red seal. More progress: I have also hand painted evidence marks, those yellow bi-fold indicators with numbers used to identify crime scene details. Thanx for your interest in my curious board game.

Christmas Fine Art Greeting Cards by Scrapboarding

I love the glitter cardstock which enables me to make sparkling and festive cards. At Christmastime, I can jewel the cards and really amp up the "WOW!" factor.

This year, I used my mother's old sheet music from when she was a young adult to craft a themed series of cards with sheet music trees and embossed snowflakes. I have the eight cards available for purchase at modest prices - $3 or $4 a piece plus shipping - set up at my desk like a mini gallery. I have also used red and green pipe cleaners on the packaging.

These small works of art really make my day. Hope yo enjoy them as well. Merry Christmas!
