Stationer's Desk Mini Book

I had many visions in my head when I got hold of one of Prima's latest collection.  I wanted to create a mini book with lots of folds and surprises.  It measures 6x6 and is held together with seam binding.

Here is the cover with the ribbon untied:

On the side I added my favorite find:  Ingvild Bolme's tassels.  They are so beautiful, and this burgundy color coordinates with the papers of the collection.

If you would like to see the inside of the book, please watch my video below:



Thanks so much for stopping by!

Prima Cartographer Mini Pocket Album

Hello!  Just a quick share on a project I was working on.  I wanted to play with the Cartographer papers from Prima and made a pocket mini album using an Accucut die.

Inside the mini, I also used Tim Holtz Idea-ology embellies and Ingvild Bolme Junkyard Findings.  I made a video taking you through the pages of the pocket mini:



Enjoy and thanks for stopping by!

Papertrey Ink MIM150: Just Because

I made a card for the Make it Monday 150 challenge of making a window card.

The designer paper is from Prima's Divine collection.  The window was created using Spellbinders dies and behind it I used Papertrey Ink's Harlequin cover plate die.  Other Papertrey Ink supplies include sentiment stamped from Damask Design, flowers from the Rosie Posie stamp set and dies, and Vintage Cream and Sweet Blush cardstock.  Added lace trim, seam binding, flat back pearls, and an Ingvild Bolme resin piece to complete the card.

Thanks for taking a peek!

Masculine 40th birthday card

Here is a card I made for a friend who turns 40 this month:

I used Bo Bunny's Timepiece 6x6 paper pad, and Papertrey Ink's stamps and numbers dies and tag.  I also added a metal hardware by Ingvild Bolme for Prima.

For the center panel, I grouped some birthday sentiments together and stamped a pattern for the background of the tag.  I also inked the edges with distress ink.

For the inside, I created a pocket for the gift card, and stamped a sentiment.

The small tag is die cut and stamped with Papertrey Ink.  Added some string to tie it together.

Thanks for stopping by!
