Decoupage tissue mini cards.

These were so much fun to do. Once card was cut I glued tissue designs with Golden's Matte Medium and while still damp embossed it with various embossing folders with my cuttlebug.
Decoupage Tissue "Garden" series by DMD. If I recall correct it came from 7 Gypsies.
Before cutting the cards I sprayed them randomly with walnut inks etc. Thanks for reading!

Journal with Crazy Quilt music related vintage paper cover.

Used some vintage papers from a very old music magazine to create this cover. Once done I gave it a coat of gesso to fade out the text etc before stamping it. If you would like the piece before I gessoed it please visit my RUSTIC PIXEL BACKGROUNDS blog and use as you please.

Mini tissue holders for the purse etc.

I was tired of not having a place to keep my tissue packs for the purse etc. So I made this one from Tyvek. Stamped it and used a double ribbon closure so it's easy to put the kleenex in. Will post some of the others I designed at a later date.

Mini heart - alpine violet image transfer.

I did four of these with a basic transfer and embellished each one differently. Will post at a later date the other three. Finished the edge with a daisy trim which has a violet center. The jewelry was given to me to use for my creativity. Printed the violet on a transparency overlay which features a blanket stitch edge. CLICK ON IMAGE TO SEE DETAILS.

Collaged wallhanging using vintage music related papers

This was so much fun to do. Glued these vintage music related papers to form a patchwork on to a wooden substrate which I had drilled the holes to hang. Clear embossed the surface to seal it at the same time. Will make a unique gift for the music lover. CLICK ON IMAGE TO SEE THE DETAIL.

Hand painted envelopes.

Started with a large sheet of white paper and sprayed paint on an old lace tablecloth. I then cut each one out and folded to form an envelope - letter size. Added the scrap pieces and stitched around it. I'm sure Jennifer will love it. This would be great for the smaller card size too!

Textured tags by Sandra

Oh my, this was fun. For some of the embellishments I also used my background paper I'm sharing with you on my Rustic Pixel Backgrounds blog. CLICK ON IMAGE TO SEE MORE DETAILS.

Handmade guest books.

To make these I started out with illustration board drawing freehand the vine around the ruled trellis. I then cut to size and attached a image printed on tissue then left edges ruffled looking. Printed off sheets for guests to sign then bound with my Zutter Binder. Finished off with ribbon on front and fibers on the coils. The background and a variation are on my Rustic Pixel Backgrounds Blog.

Victorian kids heart card

To create this I used several elements. Started off with crushed printer paper that was dyed with printer ink then scanned it in to Photoshop. Added a scanned doily then embellished with picture of Victorian kids from Dover. Oh what fun.
