ANYTHING TIMES THREE..DT

 Hello everyone,

It is Wednesday and time for Little Red Wagon and I am hostess this week with the theme...

 " Anything Times Three "


I decided to have three flowers..


Lovely little dies and quite easy to make up if you have not got clumsy and awkward fingers which I have but got the in the end..


the leaves were inked up a little bit on the edges with my favourite inks..


Then I decided to use up more stash and these
 are the pouches that the cat food was in
 ( that she does not get anymore as they caused her allergies!! )
and it is all papered up and a few stickers added...


So these are all ready to go..
now for my favourite papers that I cannot find anymore..


perfect, make my eyes go funny, but I love theses stripes..


and as I was too close to the end of the packet 
I photocopied them so I had enough..


used them for the card front and inside then popped on
 the pouch and flowers..


this is a chipboard sticker which I thought was cute and made me 
think of a photo to go inside..


and this is me, riding my trike up our drive way, 
my daughter cleaned it up for me so nit gritty anymore..
and believe me, this was a play dress, I still had fun outside. 
but my play clothes were frilly and chiffon!!!!


A layered white butterfly


tag inside the pouch..


and a cute little card set with tag..



So do come and join us

I'll see you soon..

SOMETHING TO DO FOLIO..

 Hello everyone,

I made this folio for something to do as my mojo didn't really want to play, BUT, then a lady came when I was half way through with quite a few orders which was brilliant..and a photo scrapbooklet to make with some found photos, from someone else,  so I'm onto it again..



a office file folder trimmed and fold..


that will work..


using up more papers from my stash..


both sides..


envelope with tie, that will come in handy..


long pockets inked and stickered..


envelope in place


and inking up left over circles again, they are fun to use up..


and make pockets or areas to slip something in there..


and a belly band on the back..


Then came the butterflies cut from patterned papers..


some black panels ( I think ) oh, yes, then I added a white panel
that is coming up in a minute..


I made a notebook to slip in..


and these fabulous numbers and address freebies from Lulu Crafts off Facebook..

and here we go...










using past ephemera



little note book inside envelope


The End..

Thank you so much for stopping by..
I'm off to do some more of the photobook Art Deco themed..
See you Wednesday..

FOUND THEM...

 Hello everyone,

Remember back in the day we had shops that sold cute paper pads and we bought them all and stashed them away never giving them a second thought, and after a long time we would clean a section of out craft room and LOOK!!


Rosies studio were sold at our "The Warehouse " store


and only this much..


so I felt a little travel booklet was in store..


and used every scrap I could and started that off by cutting the red white and blue strips off
to trim down to use many times.


Photo bomb, she's always lurking there somewhere.


I used my stripes to edge pockets..


filled with old postcards and paper scraps and tickets.


see..


used my dies and cut up some travel embellishments.


added TH suitcasesand numbers


lots of stamp from all over the world


an oval inside to write on and a panel for a couple of photos..
I didn't need to touch them as this is how they came about.

so there you go, a blast from the past and a lot of fun..

thank you so much for stopping by, see you soon..

luv CHRISSYxx
