a little pocket folder I included two stamped sheets of words an...I start- You finish idea.. |
check out the lunar eclipse if you're up in the morning!
thanks for stopping by!
 |
| cover |
 |
| it started out as a panel from a 12 x 12 sheet of designer paper the 4th panel was folded behind the 3rd and cut on a diagonal to create a pocket a signature was added |
 |
| vellum cover over the signature |
 |
| and the pocket filled with a few tags |
It feels good to finally use it!
see you tomorrow.
used up a sheet of paper and lots of odds and ends for these....
 |
| inside right pocket |
 |
you can make one, too. one piece 6 x 12 fold right side over about 1 1/2 " and notch fold left side over about 1/3 of the way cut from fold to edge on an angle |
 |
| then bring sides together and fill. I did sew a signature of blank paper into the middle fold using a 3 hole stab binding: punch 3 holes - one in the center, and two more about 1" from top and bottom sew through middle, back through top, through the bottom and back through the middle. tie a knot around the center stitch you can "google" how to do this and get pictures.... |
well I couldn't part with the journal yet but I did put these in the little library on the corner
 |
| these..... |
 |
| became these... |
back home with all my stuff.....too much stuff...
so I'm going to try to use some up and put "little gifts of gratitude" in the Little Libraries we have in our neighborhood for the month of November.
first up...... a journal with 3 signatures.
 |
| a few embellishments inside |
 |
 |
| inside covers with pockets and inserts |
 |
| and the cover. |
cat, skeleton, and owl faces are all in single pieces - easy, peasy!
jack o lantern has a separate nose - once you know that, no problem.
witch eye pupils are a little tricky, be prepared to cut 2x.
ghost eyes and mouth are three separate pieces but very easy to use.
I believe this set is still on sale at JoAnns. And Labor day shipping is only $1.99.
something to know....the background pieces are kinda big so you may only get 2 - 3 out of the "not glitter" paper . Not sure if the cost of this specialty paper is worth the look. I used regular cardstock from Michaels and it's all good.
have fun!!
IOD......omg.......
love, love the molds! ordered one already and still thinking of another....
always learn something from Tim's Saturday's you tube. Can't believe how long Stampers Anonymous has been in our life as a family....it was a store in Cleveland called Creative Block where everyone could find something to buy......over 20 years ago.
And yes, they all remember going! Many times!
saw something at JoAnns and decided to search their site.
can't believe I saw T. Holtz 2022 halloween on sale for 40% off and $1.99 shipping.
The retro halloween dies and not glitter paper are out for shipping at below the original cost of the dies.
the sale price was $17 (reg. $28)!
it pays to check out the big stores every now and then!
watched T. Holtz Halloween you tube yesterday......
three things are now in my cart at scrapbook.com
when he said Sizzix is now retiring dies/folders after each release I decided I needed the acorn folder, the not glitter paper (can't remember the real name) and the cat/ghost/witch/owl etc. die set.
learned a few new to me techniques, too. worth watching, especially in this kind of weather.
stay cool!
