Love on a card

Hi!

I bought a new die set on my last trip to Tuesday Morning!

It's a Stephanie Barnard set.

Here is the card...

I layered the LOVE piece 3 times then with the fourth cut 

I removed the border and laid LOVE on top.

I'm liking how this came out with the layers 

and the Nuvo Glitter drops on LOVE.

It gives it even more dimension. 

Unfortunately,

the cardstock that I used was a little too flimsy for the base so my next one will have to be done with a heavier base.

And due to that flimsy base,

 I was going to say that I "probably" won't give this to anyone, 

however.....

if you look at the bottom right of this photo...

as I was getting ready for picture taking,

I dipped it into the one little drop of tea on my desk! 

The flimsy paper is now warped! 

"Probably" is no longer probably...

it is most definitely,

 "Definitely" NOT going to anyone!

LOL

Just another day in a craft room! 

Thanks for stopping by!

Have a wonderful day!

Gelli printed card

Hello!

I was in a gelli printing mood and decided to make some cards with what I ended up with. 

Here is my first card...

Wow, the photo doesn't do the colors justice!

Hopefully, if you click on it you'll get a better look! 

The embellishments were leftover from another card I made.

Thanks for stopping by! 

Have a wonderful day!

My version...

Hi!

So jumping on the Travelers Notebook wagon

I decided to try my hand at making my own! 

My guess at the cover paper is it's from BoBerry, 

I could be wrong.

The flip side of the cover page 

and the cover page of my first insert.

The insert cover page is a gelli plate print I did.

The calendar pages are from My Artistic Adventures

Here are the pockets I made behind the December calendar 

and another gelli plate printing strategically hiding my journaling.

Below are the lined papers I made.

Simply set my Word Page to landscape and printed a whole bunch of underscores for the lines.

Here you can see a close up of the lines as well as the notch I punched in the journal to keep it in place in the notebook.

A bunch of tags from Heather at My Artistic Adventures are below.

I love these!

 She painted the roses, buds and everything else on the tags!

The pockets I made from the edges of her calendar pages.

Not sure where I got the cardstock above.

My second insert

and the back page

I did not measure to make sure it was exactly like 

the TN's out there, 

just wanted one that worked for me and what I had to use.

I made a spur of the moment decision to make a video about this! 

The link is below.

Retro Mini Album

Hi! 

The mini album I'm sharing was supposed to be a baby girl mini but didn't quite make it there for me,

 but it is pretty cool anyway (if I do say so myself)!

I bought the retro paper pad a while ago. 

Not sure where anymore.

Here is the album...

There are loads of places for photos and journaling

There are pockets & tags

Pages that flip out one way or the other,

with either a magnet or a velcro closure

Top and side pockets with large tags for photos and journaling

Tuck spots for more photos, 

under the butterfly(above) or borders(below)

A waterfall page with bellyband

More pockets & tags

as well as 

photo mat or journal mat pages

Thanks for stopping by!

I hope you like my retro mini!

Have a wonderful day!
