MASTER BOARD..


Hello everyone,

Sharing a master board I made using up funny little vintage papers, stamps stickers and stuff..and it kept me busy and it stopped my online shopping!!😂

plus all my orders were done and the Christmas ones are coming in now..


These are the papers, too small really for what I make,
 but very cool as well, so they were my base..


This glue stick is the best I've ever used from Dollarama store here at home
but they have no more and only 99 cents for gosh sakes, 
I only bought ten of them and ploughing 
my way through them..


they stick so well with no sticky up bits.


so covered both side of this very large sheet A3 I think it is, 


So this was emptied, so proud..


now this ones turn but only to fill up gaps..


there they are three of them, both sides..


i don't want to talk about how one side is facing one way and the reverse side is upside down,
 but I really don't want to talk about it..


Time for stamps, stickers or printed, I used them all..


Not bad..


going to get better..


Done..dried and time to chop up..


I made frames, panels (skinny ones, )


labels


butterflies ( come back tomorrow)


and flowers...

So there you go, pop back tomorrow and I'll show
you  what I did with the negatives from the butterflies..

Thank you so much for stopping by
See you tomorrow..

LAVENDER BOOKLET..

 Hello everyone,

I'm sharing a busy busy little booklet I made that just kept going and had a slight colour change as I went..


There are 12 x12 papers folded in half and so pastel and beautiful..


Then folded again to make 6x6 size fat little pages..


Then glued all the edges together
 and the back of this to the front of that


and made a booklet..


made some of the edges a lacy trim


and die cut a million roses, well, it felt like it..
and then put is all together and decorated it..





 flower change..
this was the original colour but the papers made me 
change to lavender and I put another layer over the pink, just
looks so much more pink here..






brought is few new colours..


used some older ephemera, on the left there.




Which opened up like this, a hidden pocket, so to speak.




Ephemera clusters I made..






Janette sent me these hearts and this one  I glossied over it
with glossy accents but wished now I did it different.




and that's it, there you go..

I have been using up so many scraps and older papers,
 I cant wait for the next ten years to go by so I can buy new stuff..
( Yeah right )..
Thank you so much for stopping by..
I'll see you soon..
