A couple of projects an altered recipe box and scrapbook page!
Happy Thursday!
For today I chose to not sleep in so late. When I tell you guys I got up at 8:30 am and took a nap at 1:15 (for a half hour) you’d probably say that is late. I do admit I feel much better with Mike home and sleep better knowing I have him home.
Today’s scrap pages feature my favorite 14 year old kid, Chad. I just love his smile and just wish that we could do without the typical attitude of a teen.
The stamped image of the clown is from Sparkle N Sprinkle stamps, I used my copic markers to color the image and cut it out with scissors. When I placed it onto the page, I used two pop dots at his feet so it looks as if he is in motion.
To embellish my simple “Chad” title, I used orange glue and sprinkled in a bit of sparkle with some glitter. Chad’s favorite color is green so there is plenty of green along with the fun orange. It is a bold bright page and is perfect for him.
By the way, don’t you just love my fancy wrapping paper? Yes folks that is a plain brown bag!
Tomorrow I am looking forward to spending some time with some friends tomorrow followed by a bit of play time! I am so looking forward to the outing.
The recipe box was an actual recipe box I picked up from the craft store a while back, I used DP that matched my kitchen and a little shrink plastic grape as an embellishment.
In person the grape has a lot of sparkle, I used water color paints that have glitter in them to decorate the plastic. Once shrunk, I put a layer of lacquer over the top and let it dry. It is attached to the box using E6000 glue.
I hope you all have a great night!
Stamp Happy!
