On the Mailbox Muse Design Team!

We have several talented artists...

Today we are honored to introduce you to
another one of those amazing members on our team
Tonya Trantham!

She comes to us from Tennessee!

Hi everyone! I am Tonya Trantham and I was asked to share a little about myself here on Altered Pages. I’m married to a wonderful guy who supports all of my crafty endeavors. I have one son, three step daughters, which all are married and one adorable grandson.

I have been crafting for as long as I can remember . My mom said she could give me a box of crayons and a drawing pad and I could preoccupy myself for hours upon end. I took art classes all the way through school, went to college on a art scholarship and received a degree in commercial art.

I currently design for Mailbox Muse, Canvas Corp, Eileen Hull’s Inspiration Team, Crafty Card Gallery and guest design for The Robin’s Nest. Also I have been published in Craft Ideas and Scrapbook Generation’s Create magazines.

My favorite forms of creating is altering/upcycling and 3D art. You can see more of my creations over at my blog: www.creativeaddictiontopaper.blogspot.com .

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!
