Each year Pantone offers a color of the Year and this year is GREENERY.

Our Team will be integrating green into their work this month for your visual enjoyment.

What is Pantone?   Pantone, Inc. is the authority on color, THE provider of color systems and leading technology for accurate communication of color.   The Pantone Color Matching System is largely a standardized color reproduction system. By standardizing the colors, different manufacturers in different locations can all refer to the Pantone system to make sure colors match without direct contact with one another.
One such use is standardizing colors in the CMYK process. The CMYK process is a method of printing color by using four inks—cyan, magenta, yellow, and black. A majority of the world's printed material is produced using the CMYK process, and there is a special subset of Pantone colors that can be reproduced using CMYK.
Think of Baseball Teams or Department Stores, or any logos and uniforms.  They can be perfectly color matched using Pantone information.
Another note from the "color people in the know",  pastels will be making a big comeback in 2017, not your Grandma's sofa!   REUSE, RECYCLE, REBIRTH!

This month we will give away FAB gifts! Use the hashtag #alteredpages on all your social media to win. Share us to Facebook, Twitter, G+, LinkedIn, Tumblr, and Instagram. Random winners will be chosen.

 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!
