Preparing to create Pocket Altered Pages!

       Hi gang! Thanks for joining us here at Altered Pages! 

This month of June the team is going all out and Altered Pocket Pages with collages, paper, embellies, OH MY! and other treasures from Altered Pages.com!
 

 Here are some sneak peeks of the beginnings of my pocket page for my friend

   All carefully chosen collages cut and embellies picked out~ready to assemble into nine ATCs with fun treasures included.
Stay tuned for the 19th when I share my completed pocket letter project with you!  ")

Lyneen here, to share a few cards in progress...
I am in the planning stages of my next page using papers from the Steampunk Spells  8x8 Pad.  8x8 Pads are PERFECT for Pocket Altered Pages!


In the planning stages I have a lot of products out that I think I may use and start playing with them.  Dew Drops, Gold Opulence and German Scrap Keyhole to name a few.  Above I have added Steampunk Washi Tape to three cards!



I have cut a chipboard gear in half that is too big for one pocket and the pieces will fit side by side in two pockets!
Bet you can't wait to see my finished
STEAMPUNK SPELLS Pocket Altered Page!
I will be back later this month with a finished page!!!

 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.
