WORKING WITH DISTRESS INKS

Alyssa's Daybook

My Gal Pal......

I am currently working on a daybook for my favorite gal, my daughter Alyssa. Here is a sneak peak. I am hoping to upload a video tomorrow. I want to use as much natural light to get as close to the actual colors in the book as possible. Here is the cover. 

Moving Day Book

The important things in life......

So I walked in to my craft room this morning with all intentions of starting to pack a "few" things up. I started to pull out a few binders and boxes that hold my stickers and embellishments and got a lil' distracted. Ok, fine, I got a lot distracted. My Moving day book was sitting on the desk. <Sigh> I was productive this morning......just not on packing.   hehe

COVER (Found some Thickers at Marshalls) 

Inside Cover ( Sold sign and leaving NY) 

First Page - My reminder to myself to be brave.....it is a big move. 

 

Some of the inside unfinished pages. 

 

Luckily for me, I need color ink. I am unable to print out photos I want to place in the book. Maybe I will get some packing done today after all :)


****Reminder.......Monday Alyssa and I will be unveiling our last Day Book Give a way prior to our "big" move.  I will post pictures of the book we will be giving away this Monday. September 10th

I just had to share. The Day Book bug has infested my house. My 13 year old daughter, an artist by nature has decided to get in on the day book bug and make some books to capture her last minute NY memories. Here is the results of Day book 1 for her.

My most recent day book. <sigh> I really need to stop making these, but I have so much paper and this is such a great way to use it. They are like mini smash books.....LOL. So far this one has the best stitching yet (straight for a change lol)

YAY, Straight :)

Fabric Day Book

This is a view of the whole book ...each page cascades, pages get a little big longer each time :)

Ooops I did it again.....this is getting really really bad LOL
