Robyn's Journal

Hi all,

This is a journal I made for a work collegue, who is leaving for a sea change literally. The base of this is just a spiral bound hardcovered notebook. The kind you can get for around $2.00 in the reject shop. I carefully took it apart, and covered the back and front covers with a lovely text paper by Kaisercraft, then I re-assembled it. To decorate the front I used some of the Tim Holtz metal corners, a door knob and key plate. Lots of pretty ribbons on the spine and a charm, then just flowers, leaves and some bling to make it girly.

I also made the sample card from the Art Philosophy cricut cartridge and stamp set as it is the same friends birthday this week.

That's all from me for today.

Thanks for stopping by.

Cheers

Baby Boy(s) Card

Hi all, Sorry I don't have an entry for week 6 of Strut you Cuts. This last week has just passed me by. I did have some things that I had to finish and one is a card I made for a lovely young lady I work, with who gave birth to twin boys this week. Congrats Shelley.

The basics for this card came from Enfys over at Going Buggy It is a double pocket card made out of one sheet of 12 x 12 double sided paper. I decorated it with some navy velvet ribbon, some spotted washi tape, and some trinkets. The stamp is from my Art Philosophy stamp set an the paper is from Kaisercraft. I made some tags, added some twine that I purchased at Scrapbook Sinners in Traralgon.

Card without the Tags looks like this:

I made some elements from another sheet of paper into tags:

and inside the card I just added another tag element:

Thanks for visiting, if you like my card please leave a comment. I have another project that I have completed and will add that to the blog tonight, so call back later to check it out.

Bye for now

Strut your cuts - Week 5

Hi all. For my week five entry I have made a 12 x 12 layout. I did not have any of the 5 listed carts, so I used Cricut Essentials (which was given to me by the lovely Leonie from Scrapbook Sinners in Traralgon).

I cut large flowers at 5" and fit these behind my matted photos, then I cut stems (which are hard to see in the photo) and smaller flowers to make the flower garden. The small butterflys where punched from stampin up punch and the large from a Martha Sterwart punch. I added some Kindy Glitz to sparkle things up bit, I really enjoyed doing this layout.



The two fairies in the photo's are my beautiful grandaughters, and its hard to believe they will be 10 this year.

Thanks for stopping by. I am hoping to complete some of the things I have been working on, will post as soon as I finish.

Cheers
