South Carolina is for Lovers

Hi everyone! It's me, Tonya. I don't know about you but I do love the beach and I sure do love Folly Beach which is in Charleston, South Carolina. The hubby and I love Folly Beach so much we were married there a couple of years ago. It was the most perfect sunny day in March, out of a not so warm and perfect week of cold, icky and bad weather. But hey...I got my wish of being able to stand barefoot on the beach with the man I love and say our I does. :-)   

I would like to share a page of a recent trip we took. I used the AP 211 State of South Carolina printable and a piece of cardstock that I cut down to 5 5/8"x7 5/8" from the Glitz Uncharted Waters Paper Pad from Altered Pages.


The page was very easy to put together. I used ephemera I had picked up from the hotel and trips into Charleston.


I have a Instax printer that I took along on the trip and was able to print photos that I took with my phone. I added a map of the area that I had pulled from a magazine, printables and a postage stamp that I found of a lighthouse. 


I picked up these over sized business cards at the Music Hall that is located in downtown Charleston.  I knew I had to create a pocket to hold these cards in so I can pull them back out and look at them when I wanted to. 


There you have it a very simple page of vacation memories. If you have any questions please let me know.

Thanks for stopping by, hope your day is wonderful and enjoy creating!





Come back again tomorrow to see where the design team will take you next as we travel across the USA through art.  Please comment daily to share the love with our artists and be entered into the random drawing for a package of vintage postcards and a vintage map.  (value 17.00)

 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!
