My first IRALAMIJA DT Project

        Hi there! I'm posting to show a new project I made with products from Iralamija's store on Etsy!
I've always loved her images!

 With a 3.5x5 inch image from the I started out with a plain scroll shaped wood frame. With and full size print from the BIG WOOD & FLORAL Images, I traced the frame and cut out the shape. Using Fabri-tac glue, I glued the cardstock down on the frame.


When it was dry a lightly sanded the edges of the frame with sandpaper. I LOVE the finished look it gives you. Then I inked all the edges to give it an aged look. 

  











With a 3.5x5 inch image from the ROSE PETAL Backgrounds Images, and used Scor-Tape to stick it to the back of the fame.











Since the frame opening was just a tad larger than the image, I was able to sprinkle some glass glitter along the edges. I love it. :) 

Next, I started piling goodies on the frame just to see what I'd like to use. This is where things get very messy for me. :)

After choosing a number of things, like vintage buttons, twine, my own handmade fabric flowers, lace, heart stick pins and vintage sewing pattern paper, I glued them all down with more Fabri-tac.   
 
 
       I finished off the project by cutting out and using two butterflies from the SHABBY BUTTERFLIES Collage Images an that adorable spool top is from the SHABBY SPOOLS Collage Images.

GOT CARDS?

I'm a little late as usual posting, but I have great news! I've been inspired to once again make a few cards! After making thousands of handmade greeting cards, most of which were sold on eBay, I suddenly grew tired of making them. I'm sure a new baby (my second child), many life changes, and of course my interest in mini albums, just drained me of my card making mojo. This week Pocket Full Of Papers is having a handmade greeting card challenge that is part of the Holiday Shoppe we're hosting this month. Be sure to search PFOP on eBay to see all the handmade paper goodies and designer handmade cards,we have to offer this week!  I had no idea when I started making a couple cards for the challenge I would end up with a whopping 25 so far! Some of them really have a lot of my "oc" designs, like bouquets, or tiny flowers adorning a fence. Something new for me in cardmaking has been machine sewing many of the layers. I love on cards just as much as on al...

Let's Go A Haunting!

I love Halloween, it's one of my favorite holidays. Fall comes in colors of red, orange, brown...then BAM, Halloween comes and throws in purple and black and green, making for one of the most awesome color pallets! Tonight I listed my first Halloween album. I like the horizontal rectangle, it gives great little layouts just the right room. This paper line is called Haunted by Cosmo Cricket. Yeah, I LOVE me some Cosmo Cricket!! The paper pack comes with awesome stickers, so you can't help but spend the extra $$$ and get the chipboard shapes that the stickers fit perfectly over top of! After all that careful tracing, cutting, gluing, and of course finally sanding every edge, I had one pretty neat album to fill :) I have to point out one funny thing... this dang little swirl is suppose to show the bats flight pattern right? I made it from one straight row of connected pearls and it was soooo hard to get it right! LOL! I love how this page turned out, I cut that leafy-vine-flourish...
