Lisa Fulmer published another awesome book!

Did you know Lisa Fulmer has published another book? 
 
“Stylish Craft Foam Projects”
 
 
 
Lisa Fulmer is a well-known craft industry professional and she shares how to work with craft foam. In her new book, Stylish Craft Foam Projects,” she describes the differences between foams available to use when crafting. She describes what the purpose of each of type of foam and products that work best with each of them.  Lisa's book is packed full of great projects to inspire your creativity throughout the year! Signed copies of her book are available here!
 
I had the privilege to review Stylish Craft Foam Projects and was so inspired I pulled out some SmoothFoam ornaments from my stash.  Following Lisa’s suggestions for working with SmoothFoam I found it much easier than my past trial and errors!  If you like to craft with foam I highly recommend adding this book to your library! Learn more about Lisa Fulmer and books on her blog HERE!

 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!
