Ustream Monday February 2

0

Hi everyone,  I hope you can join me Monday, February 2, 2015 at 8:30 p.m. EST  live on Ustream for some Mixed Media Inky Finger Fun!   I will be sharing a preview of some of the new products released at CHA by Limor Webber Designs and IndigoBlu along with some of my tried and true favorites from Faber-Castell Design Memory Craft®.

We will create this mixed media tag from start to finish.

The theme of this tag is based on the Fruit of The Spirit  Galatians 5:22-23  

"But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, forbearance, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness and self-control. Against such things there is no law."

As always we will do our best to record for those unable to join us live.

CHA Travel Journal

6

Hi everyone, I'm excited about my upcoming trip to CHA.  I absolutely love going and meeting new friends, hanging out with old friends and seeing all the yummy new products about to release.   I have created this awesome journal to capture my travel plans, photos from the show, make and takes, notes and contacts.

Books like this help me to keep everything together.  I started out using an Mini Avery Notebook  that is about 5.5 x 8.5 inches.  I found mine at WalMart in the office supply section. This is the perfect size, because it fits in my purse and isn't too bulky.   I love the three ring system, so that I can easily shift things around in my book.

To alter the notebook I used Teresa Collins Designs Nine & Co. collection

Here are some photos of the album: 

On the cover I also included Flower Bouquet Silhouette Cameo Cut, and on the inside I used the  3 bracket File Folders for dividers on the inside of the book. 

I used created my own pocket pages by cutting down page protectors and sewing them with Gold thread.  

I also used glassine bags for pockets in the book. 

I created additional storage by using 5.75 x 8.75  inch envelopes and trimmed the top off to create a pocket page.  

I used the file folders from the collection as pages in the book, by cutting them in half. 

Gold glitter washi tape was added through out the book for added detail. 

I sewed all of the sticker labels down with gold thread.

 I also added a fun pocket for tags and added some sequins in the middle.  

 Binder clips and paper clips are always handy in book like this.

Here I have used one to keep my tag from flopping around.

I plan to use these tags for photos and journal spots. I may make more of the sheet protectors when I return and tuck them into the finished book. 

I kept all of my loose leaf paper in the back of the binder, so that It is easy to write my notes.  The back pocket is a great additional storage area as well. 

Here is a video walk through of the album. 

If you  are planning to attend CHA look for me!  I would love to meet you. 

Thanks for stopping in today, 

Tonya
