Altered Pages is really honored
 to have 
Karen Conner 
join the Altered Pages Design Team  

If you missed when we introduced Karen on Facebook we are sharing again! 


Hi! I'm a southern girl with the drawl and all! Live in Southern Virginia with my husband of 35 yrs and our furbaby-Snickers. 

I love designing, drawing, crafting, altering-everything art related! I started off making cards with a Stampin Up group. I found out you can use those supplies and scrapbook. Then I discovered You Tube! A whole new world of crafting opened up for me!! What's stuck the longest and is my favorite is altering things. Canvas, clipboards, boxes, chipboard. Mixed Media is now a way of life too. Using multiple methods to alter items just makes sense to me. I love people too! Making new friends and sharing my love of art with them is always fun! 

Karen shares a beautiful mini album she made with products she won from AlteredPages.com!

Watch her video as she talks about her beautiful mini album!


Supplies:
Pearl embossing folder

 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.
