Spring Time Village

  First time using these village dies. 

 Sizzix - Tim Holtz - Thinlits Dies - Village Collection


 
It was a bit challenging gluing the tiny parts (like the windows). but so fun! 
I used metallic paper behind the windows hoping it would reflect the light and look like the lights were on.


 The collection has so many parts that make it easy to create many different styles of buildings
I know will be making more of these in the future.  :)
 ❤️
 
Thank you for stopping by!!!

January Morning Walk 3

 Hi scrappy friends! I know I haven't posted more about my "Morning Walk Journal". It has been the January from....(you know where) .... around here. We had major wind storms and power outages that lasted for days. And then to top it of 2 weeks ago I had to go in for eye surgery to repair a detached retina. Surgery went well and I'm healing as expected, but for about 3 months I won't be able to see out of my right eye. Everything is just a big blur in that eye. I have just recently resumed walking with Ida Mae. And I do intend to get back to my Morning walk journal. This page I had begun before the ....(you know what).... hit the fan, and I just finished it.


 I remember thinking the quote "Red Sky At Morning... " When I was taking the photo's. I had no idea the storm it predicted would be so bad. Thank you so much for stopping by to look!!

January Morning Walk Journal Pages 2

 Hi Friends!

I have 2 more Journal pages for my "Morning walk" Journal.  You can click HERE to see my first post telling about my project. 

 

This page is about seeing these long spikes of ice growing out of the ground when it gets cold.  I think they look interesting, And my imagination would make them into things like a miniature ice castles, cities, or maybe ice troll hair. 


 
After taking these pictures I looked them up on the internet, and discovered the scientific explanation of them.   they are called 

Needle Ice!  (you can click on the picture to enlarge it if you would like to read it)

49 and Market Nature Study papers for the back ground. 49 and Market Nature Study General Laser Cut Elements.  I cut the flowers from Sizzix "Spring Stems" flowers die and brushed them with heavy gesso to make them look a bit snowy.  I cut the number "5" from Scrapbook.com's "Bold Numbers" die set.  I used a public domain image of a troll, altered it, and printed it along with the journaling on my printer.  I fussy cut the troll,  and also I used some ephemera from my stash. I edged some pieces with Vintage photo distress ink.

 

The next page "Snowy Sunday!"

This page is about the fist big storm of the year.   10 inches of light and fluffy snow.  So pretty to walk through!     
And not to difficult to clean up.  

"Less walking and more shoveling".  😀

2nd page creating:  I used 49 and Market papers as the base page.  I have lace to give a snowy texture. The quote comes from the children's book "the Snowy Day" .  I used decorative scissors on the edge. I die cut the pine branch from Echo Park's "Jolly Branch Trio".  The flourish comes from an old kaisercraft collection. The snow flakes are Reneabouques.  And There is a cutout green bow from 49 and market.

Thank you so much for stopping by to look!   ❤️

 I used some 49 and Market Nature Study papers. 
I printed some public domain images.  
 
Used a wood snowflake.
 
 

 

I used some 49 and Market ephemera. I've also used some vintage book pages.  I stamped and heat embossed with the stamp - Stampers Journey - "Stay Wild ".

I printed the text from photo shop

 

Here is my walking partner  Ida Mae.

Graphic 45 life is abundant 12"x12" page of Ginny

 Hi Everyone! I have made up a 12"x12" scrapbook page using Graphic 45's life is abundant papers. The image is of my sons dog Ginny when she was just a brand new yellow lab puppy. She has a dirty nose because she stuck her nose in the mud. 😄 I did a lot of fussy cutting and used some ephemera. I also used some chunky glitter and Reneabouques printed beautiful board sweet daisies.
The beautiful pink lilies were made by a friend, Carri.

French Blue Prima's Paper Collection Handmade Mini Photo Album


 Love this paper collection by Frank Garcia from Prima Marketing,

 

On the cover I used the ephemera pieces, flowers, and chipboard pieces from the collection.  I also used a lazer cut wood piece.  I used embossing powder in it in gold and white.  Some of the fussy cut flowers are left over from the Craft o clock Vintage Chic collection I used on the last mini album.

 I have decorated with some Reneabouquets chipboard, and flowers from my stash.


 
There are flip up pages and tuck spots for journaling tags
 

Places for wallet size photos.
 
 
 
 
A pullout photo booklet, or folio.

A page with 4 pockets and large photo mats.  Some cute envelope cutouts that come with the collection.


 

 On the spine I used a piece of Pion Designs paper and lace.
