A little bottle....

A Little Bottle......

I like to play with mixed media for some projects. I like differnt textures and developing new ways to make the most out of differnt products. This was my first attempt at a bottle. It’s only small around 4×4 and it was so very pretty. I wanted to embellish more but didn’t want to over power the actual bottle.  

I’ve use some petaloo glowrrs and butterflies on there. With some prima lace and tags. And prima say it with crystals. I find I cut up a lot of embellishments using them it bits and pieces rather than a whole pack on one project :)  

My first idea was to decorate the top as well but it has a lovely cross stitched flower under the lid and I didn’t want to hide that. I cut a small frame with my silhoutte to go around the lock and there we have it :) I think next time I will do something a bit bolder and get a plainer bottle maybe with a cork? Stay tuned :) TFL 

A summer mini album ....

A Summer Mini Album ......

I'm always trying out new ideas. I’m totally in love with echo park papers lots at the mo. This one made two mini albums with bits left over for cards and things to so I think we’ll worth the money.  

I bound it with a zutter binder and tied some tule and ribbon to the spiral. I love this effect and use it loads.

                                    

clear photo corners are brilliant for positioning photos you don't want to glue in .

Frames to slide out 

Inside there’s lots of room to add photos and write your thoughts to go with them. And even pop maybe some tickets or small keep sales from the day.  

Added some pull out and fold out pieces. This was just a quick album. So only a couple of these but I think it’s affective :)
