Altered Canvas


My first attempt making an altered canvas and it definitely was a learning experience. Will be putting my new knowledge to work shortly on another. This one is 5 x 7, background paper is from the new Prima Engraver collection, little embellishment a Friday Freebie from Prima, Cherry Lynn Flourish and skeleton leaf and flowers are I am Roses. Around the edge I added a small black trim from Wrights.

Thanks again for stopping by!!

French Country Paper Bag Recipe Album


Just finished this French Country Recipe Album for a friends birthday. It measures 6x8 inches with  
chipboard covers, inter pages are made from giant lunch bags from Walmart. 
Flower is made using the coordinating flower sheets from Graphic 45, bound with my Cinch using
gold wires. Wires embellished with glimmer misted seam binding.
Album was inspired by one I saw at creativecafegirl.blogspot.com .


The sunflower recipe card is a free printable Ephemera's Vintage Garden other embellishments from
Graphic 45 include Tags & Pockets, Cardstock Stickers, Flowers. & cut outs from paper collection. 
Recipes cards are from Paper Studio.


These pages feature more Cardstock Stickers, cut outs from paper collection & more recipe cards. The sunflower border is from K&C Company.


The cute little bird clip on the left page is from Maya Road, trim on pocket and under roosters is from
K&Company. Roosters on left are fussy cut from the paper collection and other embellishments are Graphic 45.... Chipboard and cut outs.


More from the Tags & Pockets, Cardstock Stickers & Flower Sheets. The chicken cards are another free printable from Ephermer's Vintage Garden and the little booklet has a couple of  Pretty Grungy cards from that blog also.


These pages I kept simple....a place for more recipes. Added some cut outs and a couple Graphic 45 Cardstock stickers.


The recipes cards on the left are held in place an embellished band with a paper clip tied with a seam binding bow. The lower border is cut with a Martha Steward punch. Last page is embellished with cut outs from paper collection and a vintage recipe.

Thanks for stopping by...I have to get this in the mail
