A Special Scrapbook for a Special Birthday.





















Hey everyone, I am here with a special scrapbook I created for my Cousins 30th birthday. I wanted to make her something really special because she gave me a really thoughtful butterfly themed gift for my birthday.

I used My Minds Eye paper and kit, Papermania bare basics scrapbook, eyelets, various embellishments, cardstock, pink ink to smudge onto the edges of the pages and ribbons.

I wanted her to have the opportunity to put her own photos inside to make it even more special for her. She is getting married this year so I thought a love themed would suit well! I added little post its to illustrate how big the photos she uses should be. Her other half is also crafty so I think she may take over in organising the photos into the right sizes! :)


























I would like to enter this into the following challenges:
Art by miran challenge: Anything Goes
Crafting with Friends: Anything Goes
Creative Fingers: Anything Goes
PDE Linky Party: Anything Goes
Simply Papercrafts Challenge: Anything Goes
Scrappers Delight's: Anything Goes

Crafty Ribbons/Fiskars LED canvas

Good afternoon everyone, hope you are well. I am here to share a backlit canvas using my Fiskars tools in a rather unusual way. I took the canvas off from the frame and folded it in half to randomly punch across the front of the canvas. I kept the cuttings for later. I then stapled the canvas back onto the frame. Next I stapled muslin fabric across the front of the canvas. I then added Clermont Cotton Lace across the bottom of the canvas as a border. I then got out my flexmarkers and coloured the punched canvas pieces in three complimentary colours. I then asked tiny gems to the centre of each and glued them randomly like flowers across the muslin fabric.

Thank you for visiting and for all your lovely comments!

Alkaline Trio lyrics mixed media canvas

I am here to show you a canvas I created using printable cotton, cotton batting, plastic vintage style frame, acrylic paints, die cut foam, metal embellishments, glitters, texture pastes and nail caviar. The lyric fabric I created in a craft program then printed onto cotton, and placed in the frame after I had stuffed the frame with cotton batting.
