Here is a project that I created with the We R Memory Keepers "Love Struck" collection:
I have used a Bare Elements Album. Added the polka dot paper , a fabric swap that I had .I stuck an old playing card behind the linen, before I glued it down. I added the old lace and the old pie tin. I stamped XOX at the end.
In order to peel off a layer of the cardboard, you need to wet it in the corners where you want to tear it. Leave it for a minute and then carefully peel off a little bit. paint randomly around edges and on the page, using a fairly dry brush. I have used regular acrylic paint.Add some paper and a piece of doily. I cut a heart out of burlap/linen. Another swap from looking for a sofa :)
The other side I just added 1/2 a doily and some works from the papers that I liked.
Here i just painted with the same aqua color acrylic paint,added a word strip and another cut out linen heart.
The other side is an envelope, where I covered the flip with the polka dot paper. added2 more fabric swaps. The little chipboard bird, I had originally glittered silver, but changed my mind and added aqua colored glitter. I liked how it turned out when it got mixed.
On these pages , I added the old blue lace along the side, added a word strip from the papers, and more polka dot paper. I love polka dot paper ! The flower on the left, is made from 7 Gypsy tissue paper.crunched together . It cut out using the vagabond and Tim Holzt die. The flag and butterfly is made from 7 Gypsy tape on a tooth pick .
The page to the right is a transparency, I have added the little cupid on the right, on top of a folded piece of fabric. Another fabric swap of a couch that we never ordered :0 I also stamped "XOX "and "What I love about you". The Kaisers little wooden clock face is also glued onto the transparency. On the other side of the transparency , I added a little card from the papers that says All you need is love, This you cannot see from the pictures.
On the next page which is the white canvas page , I only stamped LOVE on the bottom, added som cute ribbon on the side and another aqua glitter bird.
Here I created a small pocket, punched 2 holes on the left side., tied blue lace in the holes/ Added another small piece of fabric swap where I painted the edges aqua blue. I ink distressed the fabric.One more button was added to it. The tag in the pocket was made from some pattern paper. The "ribbon" is a little tiny piece of fabric cut into a ribbon.
On the envelopes side , I added more fabric , lace and a button. I also added patterned paper to the facing flip.The other flip I just cut off, to make them different. Both envelopes will have tags in them, only one has it now.
The back side of the envelope, a little lace, paper and another cut out from the papers I left lot's of space for pictures, since that's what it's all about.
last pages I threaded the blue lace through the punched holes. Knotted the lace in both ends to make it stay put. a few hearts on the other side plus some words. and a stamp in the corner. and we are all done.
This was a fun project to do, it wasn't complicated, and I used a lot of what I had laying around. That always makes me feel good.
Now the question is..... who's pictures will go into this little book ?
