Thank You

Hello everyone! Today I have a card to share with you that I had a lot of fun creating. Again, I am joining in the Tic-Tac-Toe Challenge which you can see below.

For my card I have used thank you - distress inks - plants.

Vintage Mini Album in a Case

Hello everyone! Today I have a mini album to share with you. I have been wanting to create an album to use up paper....mini albums are a great way of doing that. I have so much of this beautiful paper which is The Curiosity Collection from Kaisercraft. I also wanted to make a mini album that folded out. Alexandra shared a tutorial on how to make a mini album suitcase. I adapted it slightly and kept it simple as it is eight pages in total. This is also constructed using envelopes. I am also sharing a video walkthrough below. It's a great album to make and I love how it stands up so easily!

Here are some close ups....

Home Decor

Hello everyone! Today I would like to share something a little bit different. While I've been recuperating, I decided to work on some techniques that I've been wanting to do for some time. I have wanted to work on copic marker colouring as well as colouring with distress markers. I also hoped that along the way I would find my Mojo! To help me with this process, I enrolled in an online class which if you are interested, the link is here.
 

As I was busy colouring, I found this frame at The Reject Shop. I decided that I would display my pictures in and display in in my classroom for the children to see.

Here are some close ups...

As I have been working on these images on and off over the last two weeks, I have had a lot of fun! Using the frame has really made a difference.

Supplies:

Stamps: Altenew Persian Motifs, Gorjuss New Heights, Kaisercraft Butterflies, Tim Holtz Simple Sayings, Digital Stamps free from the internet, Digital Stamps from the on line class (see link above)

Ink: Distress inks

Paper: Strathmore Watercolor Paper, Neenah Crest Solar White

Copic Markers
