Graphic 45 Mon Amor scrapbook.




As I have previously said, I am into scrapbooking & 3d paper projects at the moment, together with my colouring. I have several projects to show you, just not got round to posting them here. I do use Pinterest  Dawn & I also have a Facebook page Dawniesden if anyone wants to take a look.

Here is my first video uploaded to You Tube showing this beautiful album, so please be kind to me.

This album I have made for my sons wedding in 2016 for me to put all my pictures in. I have used an excellent tutorial by Terrys Scrapbooks & the video link is included on her blog, together with the cutting guide etc. She takes you through the process step by step & I am thrilled with the end result.

Tiddly Inks

Now I know I have not been blogging for ages, I have been busy crafting, but have left my card making as I have got into interactive scrapbooking & colouring. I have been asked to demo my colouring at a local craft shop to me soon, which is something I still cannot believe!
This image is by Tiddlyinks & was available as part of the monthly colouring class over at Kit & Clowder. It is coloured with Polychromo pencils. I've kept the card simple, so as not to distract from the image & also to keep the postage down at this time of year.
I hope to post my photos of my scrapbooking soon.
Thanks for anyone who is still about & reading my blog.

Twilight by Crafts & Me

This image is from Crafts & me called Twilight & can be found here. She is coloured with Polychromo pencils, as is the whole picture. The brick wall, the ledge, arch & sky are all drawn in by myself to create the scene. The die is a Magnolia DooHickey called Love Lamp Post & the tag die is part of a DooHickey club set. Added glitter around the edge of the image, ribbon from stash & the stars were bought at a local garden centre several years ago & was in my Xmas stash.The papers were from scraps, so no idea whose they are.

Hidden Treasures Trunk

This is a project I have been working on for a while. Its a video & tutorial from Paper Phenomenon & is called Hidden Treasures Trunk. It holds a mini scrapbook & clipboard in the drawers as pictured.
Kathy makes the most brilliant 3D projects & sells the tutorials & or the videos.

The trunk is made of chipboard or greyboard, as its sometimes called here in the UK.
It has a secret drawer on one side, which can hold mementos or one of the scrapbooks. The handles are Forever Moments Bureau Handles by Tonic.all the brown strips are chipboard stained with Walnut Stain DI & then smeared with Glossy Accents to make it look like leather.
The top opens on hinges to reveal an opening.
The papers are Tim Holtz Wallflower paper collection, which is absolutely gorgeous.
The front unclips using magnets to reveal a place for a photograph with a ready made frame & another drawer. The handles are Mini Ring Handles by Tonic.
Here is the inside of the drawer. Lastly another picture of the box,
The clips & brads all came from an Etsy store called Forest Era, they have loads of hardware, all comes from Hong Kong & took about 10 day from ordering The sides have magnets which can be opened, so that the front panel drops down.
I now have to add photos to the scrapbooks, but am so pleased with this & its on display in my lounge..

Hydranga Fairy

This is an image by Yampuff over at Deviantart who made this image free over at Kit & Clowder Create & learn class last month.
I have coloured it with Polychromo pencils & added the water circles & sky & rain myself to create the scene.
Cant say much else as all I have done is mounted it onto tonal card from stash. No embellies at all, not sure what is wrong with me, not adding anything else lol.

Make It Crafty Kingfisher

Make It Crafty have a new set of digi stamps out on a floral theme & included in it, is this beautiful kingfisher, which I just had to have & can be bought here. I have also entered this into the DT call that is currently open too, so fingers crossed.
I have coloured with Polychromo pencils, its the first time I have coloured a bird & am quite pleased with the feathers.
The papers are from stash, so no idea whom to give credit for, I think the pink cherry blossom may have been Do Crafts.
Added a little lace, a double bow & brad & that's it, didn't want to distract from the beautiful bird. I have added a light grey background, but you can't really see it in the photo.

Make It Crafty Sea Scene

Just when I thought my thumb was getting better after its injury, it has become infected again, so more anti biotics. 2 months on & still not healed!!
This image is Coral Border , as is the Mermaid Shellina & they are part of the Under the Sea collection from Make It Crafty & I merged the two to create this underwater scene. There seems to be a theme running here with seascapes at the moment lol.
I have coloured it with my Polychromo pencils, added some glitter to her scales & mounted onto matching card. Not much more to say really, as I have added no embellishments, just showing off the colouring.
I have entered the Make It Crafty DT call, as I have quite a few of Zoes's images & I do love colouring, so who knows, I may be lucky.

Here is my first card since injuring my thumb in my guillotine. Wow was it painful!! Its still not completely healed, but its getting there. The nail will obviously take longer to grow back, but it could have been worse.

I added glitter to the mermaid scales after colouring them. The dies are Magnolia die club set. The triple bow is ribbon from my stash.

Update

Just to say I am not crafting at the moment as 3 weeks ago I cut off part of my nail & tip of thumb whilst using a guillotine. It's being dressed every other day at the moment.  Hopefully full service will be resumed as soon as possible.
