    Experimenting with cutouts

    January 9, 2009 - By 


    I’ve been wanting to use these circuit board parts for a while but wasn’t sure what to pair them with.

    I came across this picture in my pile of old photos. The couple just looked so unhappy, as if their life was just some cruel joke.

    After putting the back to back pages together I felt as if I really need to say something about them being “behind bars”.

    The words wrapping around the cutout read:
    A prison of their own making. Marriage is what you make it. Make it full of love.

    Sweet deal but now what?!?

    January 6, 2009 - By 

    I happened upon this awesome tray in the 90% off Christmas clearance at Super Target yesterday.

    Who can pass it up at that price!

    I love the tray but now what do I put in it?

    It’s 16 inches square and the sides are about 2 inches high.

    Any decorators out there?

    HELP!

    More ATC’s

    January 6, 2009 - By 


    I don’t know whats wrong with me but I keep making ATC’s. I’ve always hated working with this size.

    The top one was a “happy accident”. I was playing around with embossing powders by layering them when I accidentally smudged the still molten EP. I reheated it hoping to smooth it out a bit and decided it looked kind of cool. So then I scraped the cooling but still somewhat molten EP with a credit card. I then reheated it so it would smooth out a bit. The palm tree image is mounted with 3M foam tape.
