Today's Treasures book

Hi Everyone!!
Today I'm showing you my "Today's Treasures" book I made.

The paper is by Creative Memories, and the punch I used down the left side is a Martha Stewart Corner punch called Gothic Arches.. I love to use corner punches to make borders... that black line down the right side is elastic to hold the book closed..... You'll see how I fastened it later....

this is the inside front cover with a pock and the first divider with a pocked too....

OK this is the first section... I have several sections in this section, each contains a large envelope, mini graft paper, large graft paper, cold pressed paper, journal paper and then it starts over.....

This is the second section for Thoughts.... it also has a pocked across the bottom.....

and this is the inside back cover with a pocked across the bottom too... I used the Gothic Arches border punch here...

and here's the back cover.. here you can see how I faceted the black elastic to the cover with Eyelets. 

And this is a close up of the front title plate.... guess I should have had this pic closer to the beginning...
I'm making a few more things out of this same paper... so be posting that soon...

Thanks for stopping by again!
Hope you Enjoyed!!

Monica in Yellow!

Morning Everyone!!
Today Monica is wearing basic rust colored slacks with a yellow blouse to brighten her look.  Her belt and shoes are a darker brown with matching yellow socks.  The coat with matching hat are a lovely shade of green and has at nice red liner, nothing to out do the blouse color.  Her purse is the same as the liner of the coat.  Again only available in size "1"... Te... He... :)) 
 Monica a stamp by Rubbernecker was stamped on Water Color paper and colored with SU-Watercolor Crayons using a Aqua Pen. I left her a rectangle and just sponged the edges. For the panle in the background I used Spellbinders Wonky die, and stamped it with CTMH-Damask Tiles (C-1342) and the same for the enevelop.


Here's Monic in Yellows close up............

Here's the inside with just one Wonky panel with the Setiment also by Rubbernecker:
Be the kind of Woman that when her feet hit the floor each morning the devil says, "Oh crap, she's up!"

Belle in Pokie Dots

Hi Everyone!!
Today I though I'd show you one of the cards I made from the Rubbernecker rubber stamps I got recently.  Todays is called Belle and she is waring Blue Pokie Dots.....

Belle was stamped on Water Color paper and colored with SU-Watercolor Crayons using a Aqua Pen.
The skirt and the little piece at the top of the neckline were stamped on the Pokie Dot paper, cut and piced back in place. I left her a rectangle and just sponged the edges. For the two panles in the background I used Spellbinders Wonky dies and also for the word "Style" in the lower left corner.

here's a shot from an angle......

and here you can see the Pokie Dot paper piceing and the Style too.  See how I cut out the folds of her skirt and then colored that blue.....???

And here's the inside with two more panels... I printed the setiment on my computer,  
and I used CTMH-Damask Tiles (C-1342) on the enevelop. 
Tomarrow I'll show you another Belle done a little different........... 
Thanks for stopping by again!
Hope you Enjoyed!!

WOYWW-118

WOYWW
(What's On Your Workdesk Wednesday)
Every Wednesday Julie Dunnit hosts a gathering of crafters of all kinds from everywhere to share what they are working on, by taking a pic of your play area. It's really fun to see all the different things people from all over the world are working on and I must say I've meet some very interesting people from Julie's sit.
Thanks Julie!!!!
Will here's mine for today;
I've been coloring an trying something new for me paper piecing on some new stamps I got last week.  There by Rubbernecker and are a very good quality.  The blue one in the middle I colored the foldes of her skirt and then paper piced the rest of the skirt. For my first time I was very pleased the the result.  The other blue on I colored the whole dress but paper piced the shal and scarf on the hat.  The other two I just colored.  I'll post again when I have them all made into cards... 
Will that's it for today! 

Thanks for stopping by again!
Hope you Enjoyed!!
