Page in Progress

 I used the Tim Holtz distresser tool to shred the edges. Gives it a shabby chic quality. And you will notice I cut the centers our of all my mattings. This save weight in your scrapbook and I don't have to buy an entire other sheet for my accents. All the flowers were cut from the inserts.

 I wanted the branch to stay up in spots for a more dimensional look so I put half a pop dot under the area I wanted to stay raised.

 I do my flower assembly on the splat mat. That way it doesn't matter that the excess glue will stick to something it shouldn't. Then when you are ready you just peel off the mat and scrap the dried glue into the trash.

And poof! You have a pretty page. Tomorrows post will be same papers/flowers....different design.

Daisy Bouquet

 I was busy making a few pages-for-sale over the weekend and on a mission to use up some left over pieces from past classes. The base is the softer side of a My Minds Eye paper and the flowers are a variety of Cheery Lynn dies I like the end results.

I used Candi Dots on the flowers as well as the page. We carry a huge selection of colors at Picture This. And all of us gals at PT love using them!!

Butterfly flutter

 Another page-for-sale using some left over pieces from other projects. Don't you get on a cleaning kick sometimes? We did last Saturday at the store. And I think we could spend a week and still never get to the bottom of all of our left overs from classes, make-n-takes, card/page kits, etc. 

I used a Zig pen to draw the flight pattern for the butterflies. Just adds some whimsy to the page.
The fun flower is one of the new ones from Cheery Lynn.

Indigo Delite

 Love how this turned out! So simple but so classy. I used my favorite Judy's Blooms again. It's so easy to advise customers who are just starting our which dies we prefer since we work with them all the time. And you have sample galore at the store too to inspire your creativity.

Here's a close-up of the Judy's Blooms. You get both petal sizes and the leaves in the set. And its available at Picture This.    We ship orders out all the time. (715)830-9555

Family

 I was able to be in my room creating over the weekend. I had the PT crew cut me the circle border diecuts. (and had them put some out on the floor for sale as well)  Then I used left over papers I've had to put behind each circle. I used my Spellbinder circle dies to do so.  We lost both my husbands parents earlier this year so I dug this photo out from a few years back and did a page for him. Bittersweet but there ya go.

This is using the same diecut border all by itself so you can see how versatile it is. This puppy page hits the floor as a page-for-sale.

Daisy & Butterflies

I was using up pieces left over from other projects and this pretty card was one of the results.

Milkcan

Just playing around with bits and pieces left over. The scalloped black oval on the right was cut out of the card front on the left. I used distressed inks to get the multi colors in the background. I didn't feel like coloring so I just added inks. The flower is a Cheery Lynn Judy's Bloom. The milkcan stamp is a Judith stamp.
