Creativation 2018 Phoenix AZ

You know you have arrived when you see signs like this lining the streets downtown.

The convention floor was full of so much to see, I was there two days and didn't see it all!

Graphic 45 always has a stunning booth, pictured is one of their new lines debuting at Creativation, Little Women.

THERE WAS TONS OF COLOR.... here is Bazzill

Tim Holtz Assemblage booth was stunning with all the antiques and wonderful new products.

Plaid introduced a new glitter paint!

Coats had this beautiful Octopus quilt in their booth.

49 Market was new last year in a tiny booth and this year they had 3 times the space. They gorgeous papers, flowers and chipboard.

I saw several of our past partners!

PRIMA, Royal Langnickle and Little Birdie to name a few!

NEW TO ME was Stamperia from Italy. They had beautiful papers and the altered art in their booth was out of this world.

There were a ton of Make and Takes... just not enough time to do them all.

Above is a book create with BoBunny product and a hanging photo using Tim Holtz Assemblage products.

Cheryl Boglioli taught a workshop at Gel Press using Eileen Hull's Travel Journal.

Lisa Marie Jimenez taught a workshop using Colorique on metal. I love how the fairy wings turned out!

There is so much to do and see in such a short time... if ever you have the chance to go take it! I have been fortunate to attend 5 years. No two times have been the same.

Hope you enjoyed my snapshot of CREATIVATION!

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!
