Good morning

I have started a new journal using 49 and Market's 
Vintage Artistry Nature Study Spiral Notebook Set.

There are two journals in the pack and I am going to use the smaller one to embellish the larger one.

Because the journal has a spiral binding I can afford to add a bit of dimension to my pages


The leaf sprig is Mintay chipboard that has been coloured using Distress Inks and a water brush.

I have also layers some cheesecloth and coffee dyed fabric behind the focal image

The binder clip is a washi sticker.
and the label comes from Paper Inspirations Elegant Correspondence digital kit
I have stamped on the label using Darkroom Door's Handwriting stamp set.


Hope you enjoy watching my video


As always, thanks for joining me here today
Till next time
Have fun and stay safe

I have used two different fabrics and a the closure is from Beebeecraft.

I am very happy with how it has turned out.

Acrylic Tag

 Good morning.

Today I am using one of the beautiful Acrylic tags from Denise Boddey's shop
You will find her store here

I have also used one of the gorgeous hot air ballon chipboard pieces Denise makes.
This is the medium size 15cm high.

Hi have die cut a Poinsettia, a Primrose and some Leaves 
from an assortment of Denise's patterned papers.

I have added a layer of lace to the tag before adding fussy cuts
from Denise's Topper packs and the die cut flowers.




Here is my video if you would like to see how I embellished this gorgeous tag.


As always
Thank you for joining me here today
Till next time
