Happiness & Harmony


I've been working on some more of these Frameable quotes similar to this one.

This DSP from SU is retired as well as the stamp set.  Miscellaneous punches were used for the leaves and a  Big Shot decorative strip die was used for the bird and branches below.  I had it for a while before I finally pulled it out and tried it.  I really like it and can see using it on altered address books, frames, or even journals.  I really like the colors of this frame with the tropical flowers and glitter in the centers.  The bird also has some sponging and glitter.

Anyway, see you all tomorrow. Thanks for dropping in.

The Bird Has a Song

Hello - the start of a new week.  I hope to get lots done this week if all goes well.  My To-do list is planned and ready:)

I made some Frameable Quotes for the May Days craft fair.  They are made from chipboard coasters and I just die cut a frame opening and layered using designer paper and embellishments.  The cool thing is they can be fridge magnets or sit up on a easel-type back on a desk or fireplace, etc.

The bird die cut and branches are from Stampin' Up!  The DSP is as well but retired.  Here is a side close up:


They were fun to do and I'm working on some more for September.

Thanks for stopping by:)

Keeping organized:)

Hello there - glad you stopped by.  I'm on a roll now; four posts in a row.  Are you proud of me - LOL.

So, one of my favorite items to alter is chipboard.  I LOVE making address books and altered frames.  This one is a little different.  You can't see it well, but clik on it and it gets bigger and you might be able to read the words on the red checked piece of cardstock.  It is Birthdays & Addresses.  I'm sure you can all say that you would need one of these to help keep track.  I know I do, especially while I'm only getting older.........and getting forgetful.
This is one of my favorite types of images, especially to color.  It can be used perfectly for a "thinking of you" card to a special family member or friend.


I love the springy Designer paper.  And of course colored with copics:)  Check out the shading - not bad huh.
Here is a close up of the inside:
The left side is for birthdays and the right side is for addresses.



Pretty handy huh?  Would look great as a gift paired up with an address book and gift card.

Well it is getting late - I must hit the hay.  Busy weekend crafting, but I'm not complaining.  Just gotta go to bed at a decent time from now on.
Thanks for stopping by and hugs to you all.
