Autumn Splendour Tour

I've always wanted to take the train somewhere. Anywhere, really. I just love the thought of looking out the windows and watching the countryside go by. Since I live in Michigan, the ultimate for me would be to take the fall color tour. Yep, that's definitely on my bucket list! Here's a quick card I made to celebrate the wonderful colors of fall using an absolutely beautiful collage sheet from Altered Pages.

The instant photo frame here happens to be a stamp from my collection, but you can make a die cut frame quite easily. Or better yet, take an old blurry instant photo and pop the original picture out and use the frame!

Products used:
Colors in New England collage sheet
Train Travel Days collage sheet
Fall Splendor collage sheet
Mailbox Muse Orient Express train stamp

And a bonus project! I made this card for my husband, who is a big car guy! I used images from the Route 66 collage sheet.

A little Washi tape, a single metal gear and some buttons from my stash were the perfect embellishments for this wonderful collage.

This quick and easy pirate card uses two collage sheets. The first is the Ancient Map, cut down to panel size. The remaining four images are from the Ahoy Matey collage sheet. Two little coin embellishments from my collection give it a little shine.

Stop by again real soon and see what projects the Design Team have been working on to share with you! Happy crafting.

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!
