Hello art lovers!  It's FRIDAY and Stephanie ready to share.   In today's post I am taking a departure from the creepy baby doll head book I've been working on to take of something that needed replacing.  My trusty cell phone case is all cracked...been dropped one too many times I guess.  So, today I am going to show you how to create your very own original cell phone case using mostly Altered Pages products.  We all have phones and why not make them as original as possible, right?  Right! This project was so easy and I am thoroughly happy with the end result.  I really only used a few supplies and it didn't take too long at all.  Great for a quick crafting fix.  I used a Glitz paper that I love. It is the  Glitz 8 x 8 paper pack "Enchanted Waters ".  Honestly, I have gone to this paper pack so many times.  I also used the ever so fun  Glitz Giant Gems in "Carpe Diem ".  In the picture I show Dew Drops , but I ended...

We want to share a technique that was shared with US! We want to share it because it gives such fantastic results with simple supplies and especially at this time of year with so much bling and gifting, what could be better than personalizing what you create? Joanne Sharpe uses craft foil and a glue stick in her hand lettering tutorial. As shown in Cloth Paper Scissors promotion. Using paper of your choice - Simply write what you want with a glue stick ( UHU glue sticks are fine quality).   Allow to air dry a bit. Then lay craft foil over the glue (shiny side up) and using a Silly Stick as a brayer, rub gently but firmly to transfer the foil to the glue.     Gently peel up one corner to see if it adhered as much as you would like.  If needed, press back into place and use the silly stick again being careful not to tear the foil. Create one of a kind gifts by framing someone's name or their pet's name.   This could be the year you bec...

I created my fun "Bloom ATC" using the Collage Backgrounds Oriental AP-1724, Gold German Scrap and original one-of-a-Kind Chinese paper scrap from AlteredPages.com. I printed my background collage on both tissue paper and cardstock to create faux washi tape layers on top of edged oriental backgrounds. The papers were edged with Black Paris Trunk Ink and layered on top of  a corrugated and painted ATC base. $1 store silk flowers were pulled apart and reassembled in to petite buds and upholstery remnants were rolled into beads for added embellishment. The year was punched from mini playing cards and a piece of tissue was attach with Crystal Lacquer to make it transparent.  I hope you enjoy celebrating the upcoming Chinese New Year with my Bloom ATC!
