Paper Crafting: Altered Playing Cards with Paper Rolls
Join talented paper artist Leah Sawkins for a hands-on creative workshop where we’ll reimagine the humble playing card into a beautiful, vintage-inspired art piece. In this session, you’ll explore paper rolling techniques and creative embellishing, all while working with rescued and recycled materials.
What We’ll Do
Learn paper rolling techniques – shaping and coiling strips of paper for texture and dimension.
Work with recycled materials – including aged book pages, vintage magazines, sheet music, and more.
Transform playing cards – into unique altered art pieces with layered textures and intricate paper roll details.
Add decorative accents – such as lace, trims, stamps, and vintage ephemera for a timeless look.
What You’ll Take Home
By the end of the workshop, you’ll have a set of altered playing cards featuring stunning paper roll embellishments — perfect for framing, gifting, or using in journals, scrapbooks, or mixed media projects.
All Supplies Provided
We’ll provide all materials, tools, and embellishments — just bring your creativity and a love for turning everyday items into works of art. No prior crafting experience needed.
