Board Book Swap

By



There is a fun swap in the Alteredpages Yahoo group.  Our Swap Queen is Tolegranny and she is quite a force when it comes to getting us all involved and having a great time!   Honestly, if I did not have her to instigate I would probably not have gotten this project done.    My book is Memories of the 50's, a simple book, fun to remininsce.  The prom date has a 3-D lace prom dress, as does the girdle advertisment.   Foil tape and a cuttlebug was fun to incorporate.   I used the accordion book which is available in our papers and books section on the website.   My Mom's 50's kitchen counter had a similar pattern as the background on the Sputnik pages.   This book has 5 interior and 5 exterior pages.   click here to see more books.

 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

By
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!
