Check out my Valentine book that was posted on Stampington's Artisan Avenue Project of the Month. Yes, it really is time to start planning for Valentine's projects!
It is a book I made using the Bind It machine and those Sticky 2's that I mentioned last week!
You know, you just blow my away! I can't believe that you manage to get so many fabulous projects done, school the little ones, take care of a baby and author books! You are surely the right person to have written "The Artistic Mother".
ReplyDeleteI've just been to the collage directory to comment so you can add my blog. I've also put the directory avatar and link on my blog.
Thanks so much for all you do:

Hi Shona just saw this on Stampingtons newsletter and came over to congratulate you. Had a go tonight with some foils but mine came out more like a distressed effect..its still drying so probably blog it tomorrow. Thanks for sharing
ReplyDeleteWow, these are incredible!! I didn't realize you had such a little one!! He is so precious... It just hit me that my "baby" is 10 and the others are teenagers! Ugh when did they grow up?!
ReplyDeleteNow about the Zutter... Ok, I've been coveting one for quite a while but haven't been able to get any feedback for the other owner I know. Do you use it a lot? How cost effective is it? Right now I'm not doing much other than the occasional calender plus journals for the girls in our lives (not many of those to be sure!) With our up and coming move plus the cut in pay (much, much lower cost of living) we are keeping on a very strict budget until the house in Alaska sells. I would love to hear any feedback you can give on the Zutter!! Thank you so very much!!!

These are very nice books, Shona. This would be so neat to do.
ReplyDeleteKim, you are now listed on the directory, thanks!
ReplyDeleteLorraine, I will be by to see your foil work!
Peggy, I tried to email you directly but couldn't access your blog info. So on the bind it machine: It is super easy to use and great if you are going to make a bunch of books. It is a little pricey and then you have to buy the coil binders too, so making books would have to be a high priority for you. I got it 'cause I think it will be also good for binding my kids school art projects & poems, so I justify the cost as it is not just for my crafting!
Hi Shona, its Vanessa from Stampington, thanks so much for posting the project picture on your blog! The project is so beautiful, I'm constantly inspired by your art. Take care!
