Textured Birds booklet by Ellie Knol

 At the moment I rather give a person a little booklet as a gift than a card. 


An easy book with all the edges torn along a ruler. 


You might guess that the cover has been made with a gelliprint. 


I added some stamped script to it, a fussycut bird and a sentiment. 


The shell-pieces finish it off, knotted with the thread from binding the pages. 



Enjoy crafting!

Make it easy: Envelope and matching Card!

Birds bring mail - don't they? Hi, dear friends of Rubber Dance! My name is Gabriele from Art-a-tag and I am a Mixed Media artist. Nice to see you again!! I would like to invite you to the second step of our wonderful journey using the fantastic new Rubber Dance stamps.  This time I want to introduce one of the new sheets: Vintage Birds. It is really large! 20 x 26 cm (8 1/2 x 10 1/2 inches)!  Now have a look - isn't that beautiful?! I bet your muse is now wide awake and gives you many, many new ideas for exciting new projects.                                                    My muse told me right away: birds and mail are a great combination. I wanted to decorate an envelope with these fantastic vintage stamps - and why not make a matching card while I was at it? I used a big envelope size 32,5 x 23 cm (12,8 x 9,06 inches). The size d...

A Christmas Flip Flop Book

Image
Good morning and happy Sunday. It's Sue here and I'm happy to be sharing another Christmas project with you, a flip-flop book. We've recently had a new release of fabulous, fun, Winter/Christmas stamps, so I was keen to try them out, and there's also some old favourites in here too. I've made a pre-cut flip-flop book before, but never one from scratch. I started with a piece of A3 black card and drew it out. All of the squares are 3.5 inches (I've very old school, non of this metric mullarkey) This was the largest I could get on the card and still have an easy to see measurement. I then cut this out with my old Fiskars trimmer. For my first layer I cut 10 pieces of blue patterned paper and gessoed the edges. These are all 3.25 inches Then I cut 10 pieces of watercolour card into 3 inch squares. That's it now, no more measuring thank goodness! Now for the fun part! I stamped the images from Whimsical Winter , Playfu...
