Coffee Table Entertainment Piece....Game Board turned Photo Display

I saw this idea on Kathy Orta's channel months ago, and set out to buy some game boards at my Thrift Store visits. I wasn't sure when I would get around to making this awesome project, until today! I'm sure Kathy constructed her board from scratch..lol...she is a very talented crafter...but, I decided to buy some old game boards, in the box, with most of the pieces, if possible...lol...to create a coffee table FAMILY PHOTO Memory Board....It will take on the look of a game board, but, filled with your FAMILY PHOTO'S, that will make a wonderful conversation piece. Please join me as I construct this Memory Board with a truly Vintage feel....I'm going to do a start to finish tutorial, so if anyone would like to join in the fun, you can! Just get yourself a boxed game, and follow along. Lots of embellishments on the box, and loads of photo spaces, with journaling spots as well. A terrific gift idea, that anyone would love to receive! Please enjoy the process!

Watercolour Tile Technique

Using my new Stampin Up Watercolour Stamp Set, this was an enjoyable Vintage Card to create. I'm still working on my 60 drawer Apothecary, and felt like I needed a break from cleaning today, thus the card!...SMILES.....My Craft Room is getting a new look, as well as an ORGANIZATIONAL facelift!....LOL...ENJOY!

The INSIDE was fun to TILE as well....I added the Watercolour image from the set, shadowing the stamp with different inks. Vintage Cards are always a fun way to add different techniques....Enjoy!

Watercolour Tile Technique .....I thought I would post a picture of this card while the video is downloading. I used a Blender Pen to colour the Floral image, using 4 different Stampin Up ink colours to achieve this pretty look.... Taking twine, burlap, lace, and matching ribbon, added to the Vintage look to the front of this card. I added the Tile technique to both the front focal image, and the sentiment on the inside. Enjoy

A SU Haul, and an APOTHECARY ! WOW

This is my re-signing up order I received yesterday...plus a little Chit Chat! I was surprised with the most beautiful gift for my Craft Room, from my sister Barb! We are redoing my room TOTALLY...LOL...and, it includes my Antique APOTHECARY, which I discuss in this video...SUCH A BLESSING! I need not type another word, as my video explains it all! God Bless

Ghosting Technique with Blender Pen colouring!

I love this technique, which I call, the SHADOW TECHNIQUE ...sounds better...lol...Anyway you call it, it's beautiful on paper. This is another quick and easy Mass Production card. I really like this kind of look as well. It adds character to a lonely one stamped image...smiles....I'm on a technique roll lately....I'm going to switch up to FUN FOLDS next week I think!...lol...Have a BLESSED Lord's Day tomorrow! Night!

Emboss Resist Butterfly Laced Border Technique...

Welcome to my Craft Room. This is a beautiful border technique to add to any card. I used Glossy paper, and whisper white CARDSTOCK for a different look altogether. The emboss resist on the butterflies adds a Victorian flare to each card. I think these cards would make a wonderful mass production technique, if you need fun, fast cards in a jiffy! I will see you on the next video! Enjoy!
