Life is a Beautiful Ride

Hi Friends,

Happy Friday!

Today I am going to share with you a card I made using a fun stamp set called "Beautiful Ride' by Stampin' Up!


I used my Color Burst powders designed by Ken Oliver.  I love how once you add the water the colors just literally 'burst'.  There are so many options.  I can't wait to try more color combinations.

Sewingbird Flip-Book

Hi Friends,

I am happy to share with you a "Flip-Book" that I have made.  This flip-book is currently on its journey to a sweet friend.  

This is not a "pen-pal" type flip-book, it is filled with some goodies that I wanted to share with her.  


I used some Tilda Papers, Mother of Pearl Buttons, and some Sari Ribbon that I purchased from Ebay.  I used one sheet of paper and scored to create each panel.  Another way you could make this, is by using different papers and then putting them together with washi tape.  


 After you untie the Sari Ribbon and open the first flap this is what you see.  The right has some vintage laces and trims wrapped around a Tea/Coffee Stain tag.  and on the left you see a glassine bag filled with Tilda die cuts.  The glassine bag is adhered to the page with washi.  On the front of the glassine bag is a cut out and I hot glued Mother of Pearl buttons on the space where there were buttons. 


After you open the right flap, you will see this.  


I have added a few more little pages inside, and when you open each one, it unveils different Vintage Findings. 


All of these vintage items, I picked up at an estate sale.

Thanks for stopping by.  Hope you enjoyed my first 'Flip-book'.
