USE A STAMP..DT

 Hello everyone,

Another week has flown by and we are on a new challenge over at LITTLE RED WAGON with our lovely Brenda as hostess and her them is " USE A STAMP - postage or inking.

I decided on another booklet/folio and wanted to use up as many stamps ( postage ) 

that I had..

I started with folding this manilla kraft card into three..

and covered each side back and front with docket papers..

then postal papers, I love these papers, so busy and fun..

decide then to make a flap going up..

and loaded it up with all I had..

 A kindly lady gave this stamp album to my DIL to give to me 

as she knew I loved  playing with everything and anything..

some stamps were still on the envelopes,

and one or two were cute enough to make a pocket..

I also used many stamps with ink to add texture..

I printed out some postal papers and lined an envelope..

Booklet closed..

I really enjoyed making this one, the stamps don't look 

that visible but they really stand out in real life..

so do come and join us HERE

thank you so much for stopping by..

FLOWERS WATERPAINTED..

 Hello everyone,

First up I'm so sorry I'm not commenting much, it is a bit of hit and miss that my comment will post, so I'll keep trying..

Back with a little project just for fun and I think going to be very useful.....one day!

Glue stick and book pages always a fun start,

gluing two or three pages together to make the thicker..

then I die cut flowers out and kept the negative, 

they will come in handy for something I'm sure..

Once they were all cut out they needed colour..

water paints/

oranges and purples with green leaves..

This is a negative leaf using ..

Altenew Jumbo Gardening Picks Layering Set

( say that five times fast )

Negative flowers

again..

and a collection was made and ready to go..

Cat pouches, I love these thing but Holly does not get them anymore as she gets allergies from the mousse and it is so sad to watch her scratching and licking constantly, so glad I kept so many of these things and still have few left to play with..

after covering with book pages I added the flowers

 and a velcro dot to keep the flap closed..

and the negative became the tag..

I gave the flower centers a little black dot

Velcro closure

and an orange one..

pouch open..

and then decide to use a negative page as well..

and a negative tag  too..

three of these were made, but I still had some leftovers

 so....

I mixed the colours up..

and then there were four..

I will probably use these in a journal or on the own with a gift card, not sure ,but something for my stash..

Thank you so much for stopping by..

I LOVE Honey Bee Stamps Die sets and the perfect 

guide sheet inside that even I can follow..

I also added some ink in the eye of the flower and around the edges

and I used up all theses smaller papers from Paper Rose

layered stripes and stripes

and one flower just sat there like it was made for it!

added a simple die cut thanks
