Playing with New Things.

Hi everyone it's Danie here with you all today. 
Have you seen the latest Paper ranges from Glitz 
which are available at Altered Pages? 
If you haven't you really don't know what you are missing.  
These papers have a wonderful distressed vintage feel 
with a little bit of the fresh and funky thrown in.

Anyhow this week I started playing with some new quote stamps
and I decided to also make a little Inspirational Mini Accordion Album 
with my favorite ones.  



I chose some papers from the Laced Grace Paper Collection from Glitz, 
along with a coordinating color in the Coredinations Cardstock
to make my album covers and the off cuts I have used for tags.


My album is not finished but here's a sneak peak at it so far.  
I have used the natural Flat Jute simply tied at the front to keep it together. 


I have added some color to my neutral colored papers


This Accordion Album is quick and easy to make using envelopes. 
 I have distressed all my edges with brown ink, 
and have simply cut each of my chosen papers
 into 4 (4 x 4 inch) squares to cover each page.


As I said, it isn't finished. 
I still have more stamping and embellishing to do but you at least get the idea.


I have also been using some of these same papers
for my card making this week too!


And I thought I would leave you with a look 
at two of the other collections also available at Altered Pages.

Have a great week!

Danie xx

 Handy Tip for Artists, Recyclers and Neat Freaks! I have a follow-up to the Citra-Sol method for creating fabulous background pages and collages.   I bought a big bag of navel oranges and realized I had the ingredients to make my own solvent!   Simply take a clean glass jar, peel the rind from the oranges and place all the rind/peels, without the pulp (tangerines, oranges, navels) into the jar.   Pour enough vinegar over the peels to cover them.    Allow the jar to sit for a week or two and VOILA!     You have made your own solvent for literally pennies.    You will notice the liquid getting a bit thicker than the plain vinegar and it does not smell bad!!! I now have a  HUGE jar on the window sill!       Be careful and only use this after testing on a safe spot.

Full Circle

Hi all! Becky here today! I have been in a circle-mood lately & have been doing circles on everything! So why not do some circles with some of my Gelli Prints??? Here's a simple little card I made using 4 different circle punches, a black pen & some previously made Gelli prints! Hope you're enjoying Springtime in your area! Cheers!
