Happy New Year 2014! for the first post of this year I'm gonna start with the first installment of a series of organizational ideas for your craft room. Like they say: new year new you and what best that update and organize your beloved craft area. This is my first completed project: a Filofax goodies organizational box, inspired by my other project life box that I created last year (See project life box post here). After collecting for the past 7 months an amount of stickers, washi tape, flags, post its and more for my planner I needed space to organize it all. I found this box in the dollar store and asked the clerk if I could take so the best of all it is that it was free. After I covered my box with a coat of black paint to match my craft room, I made dividers with other boxes from my pantry. And voila! here is all organized. First project of the year completed. Stay tuned for more. Thanks for reading!

Dit is mijn tweede blogpost van vandaag. Gisteren ben ik live gegaan voor Coosa. Het gaat steeds beter maar is nog wel spannend. Dat begint op het moment dat ik in de auto stap. Dan ben ik bang dat ik iets vergeten ben. Dit heb ik gemaakt. Deze buitenkant heb ik met wax en embossingpoeder bewerkt. Het mapje waar alles in zit is 19,5 x 23 cm. Die heb ik gerild op 11 en 12 cm. Voor de binnenkant heb ik met designpapier van Studio Light gebruikt. Maar ook embossingpoeder en wax. Het kaartje links is 9,5 x 13,5 cm. Dit heb ik dubbelgevouwen nadat ik de stans erop had geplakt. De puntjes heb ik met een pos afgerond. Dat vond ik beter bij de stans passen. Dit is net zo'n mapje maar dan zonder de wax. Dit heeft een hele andere uitstraling. Dat vind ik juist leuk! Hier vind je de live uitzending. Je komt met deze link op de pagina met live uitzendingen. Daar vind je de live "boys will be boys" 19-05-2020. Live Tevens staan daar de links naar de materialen die ik heb gebruikt. Ik heb ze hieronder ook even op een rijtje gezet.

So I got this idea one night recently, that I HAD to make myself a new day planner. The one I was using was nice, but wayyyyyy too small to fit my large handwriting in, and it was driving me crazy. So, I got busy (more like obsessed - I couldn't stop til it was done), and this is what I came up with... The cover is an old Waylon Jennings album that I got at the thrift store - talk about vintage! It must have been one of his first ones. I've just been waiting for the right project to use it. The houndstooth gaffer tape on the bottom was a gift from my dear friend Julie. (thank you Julie!!!) I love it so much, and you can't get it anymore, so I have been waiting for the right project for that too... Inside the front cover I made a pocket with the bottom part of the album cover, and an intro page with an image from papayaart.com... The tabs for the months are all different... I had fun coming up with funky combinations of paper for each month's background paper. The monthly calendar was one I designed in my word processing program. I wanted big, lined, boxes for each day... In between each month I left one blank, double page spread, so I can make my planner into some kind of scrapbook to keep at the end of the year. I'm thinking I might add random world/local/musical news to these pages... The inside back cover has another pocket with part of the back cover of the album. It's got the date on it - 1967! And here's the back cover, which is the back of the album cover. I love the little paragraph where they describe who Waylon is. He must not have been very famous yet! So, that's my new planner! It starts with August 2010 and goes through the end of 2011. I'm already LOVING using it! Tomorrow I will be back with more news. Thanks so much for visiting!!!

I don't keep a ton of things private but the last half of the journaling on this one was a bit deeper than I cared to share. :)

My goal this week is to get my travel journal created and ready to go for our trip to Maine (which is a good goal since we are leaving on Friday! eek!) I am hoping to share little bits of that process throughout the week. Starting it off I want to show a little bit of what has been inspiring me lately. I love Pinterest and the ability to quickly find great ideas from all over. Here are a few I really (click on the photos to go to original source): I LOVE this whole book Kara made with vintage postcards (and not just because she got them from my Etsy Shop!). I am thinking of using her idea of stapling the cards together to make a few pages in my book. From A Beautiful Mess Making little pockets and keeping bits of the beach - or other travels sewn in. From Martha Stewart. Use maps as pages - love the sewing too! From Just Perspective For more ideas check out my Travel Journals Pinterest Board or check out my past journals here on the blog! And if you are needing vintage supplies for your own journal be sure to check out my Etsy Shop. I will be closing the shop on Thursday for almost 2 weeks - so be sure to get your supplies now!!!

2017 Topic 6: Resin Have you got time to prep a journal cover for yourself or a friend? Jennie has shared some of her great secrets with infusions in this post and in the process creates a delightful memoir. Read on... Hi everyone Jennie here with you on the PA blog tonight with a project for the Resin challenge. I am only newly "into" Resin having great difficulties in getting it shipped here to Shetland. But I managed to get some Resin products delivered to family on the Mainland and have now had the chance to experiment a little. As you all know I love the Vintage Ink and Dog stamps so I have combined a some of the Travel and Ephemera plates, along with two types of "resin" to create this small holiday journal - all ready for my travels later in the summer! As I will be packing this little journal into my suitcase I wanted to make sure that everything was relatively flat on the front cover, so have chosen elements which have been able to be glued down well. As usual I have looked for Ephemera style stamps: Travel 2 Travel T4 Ephemera EA1 I made the papers for the journal cover first adding texture with Grunge Paste and a fabulous stencil from Scrapcosy's recent release and then spritzing a sprinkling of Sleight Blue Infusions here and there. PS049 Many of you have asked how I manage to get such a light colouring with the Infusions. Well first of all I do paint my paper with a Fresco Paint, in this case Chalk, which means the colour and water do not sink into the paper. I also use A LOT of water! dabbing it off whilst drying with a heat gun. To show you how much colour I take off, this is the state of my kitchen towel when finished! Having established my base background colour I then turned to the Resin embellishments. This piece of light board was die cut and then painted with Chalk Fresco Paint to give it a base. Again I added the Sleight Blue Infusions with lots of Water. After some over-stamping with Potting Soil Archival Ink I went in with the Infusions again and this time let the walnut stains really settle as I knew I would need a darker colour for the next step. And then the fun part of adding Ultra Thick Embossing Powder - I say fun as I do find it goes everywhere ! and I always wonder whether my stamp will ever survive the stamping into the hot embossing. But it always does! It is difficult to take an adequate photograph but there is a lovely depth to the script-stamped UTEE. And so to the experiments with the two-part Resin. I added some Infusions to the mould before adding the resin in the hope that my white resin would be beautifully coloured, but sadly it didn't work! I gave the resin a coat of Fresco Chalk Paint so the Infusions had some tooth to grab on to and added layers of the Sleight Blue Infusions until I got a good depth of colour. I managed to paint the Gold Fresco in such a way that it looks crusty and old, heating with a heat gun to get it to bubble. And then fun time decorating the journal. I have used stamps from all three sets both on the cover and also for the embellishments. As you all know I love how all these little stamps can create layering labels. A simple signature tied together with string will give me my journal pages and there is a little pocket in the front for some of the smaller tickets I like to collect. I always find a simple ribbon binding also works well as these little journals can get a bit bulky! I really love how using the same colour Infusions has resulted in a lovely range of colours and the Resin pieces are very solid and will stand a fair bit of abuse in my bag! A simple but I think quite effective little travel journal which will be fun to write in and record my upcoming holiday with my two old school friends in Crete in May. I do like these small journals as I don't feel "threatened" in terms of writing in them, they fit perfectly in a small handbag and actually look rather cute on my craft room shelf. If you would like to know more of exactly how I made the journal (which wasn't really the purpose of this post) then please visit my blog HERE where I have included a few more details of sizes, etc. As always thank you for joining me and have a great crafting week! Jennie x Live The Dream I love how the journal looks perfectly ready for Crete too, the colours have a lovely nautical vibe. I think you might need a sepia pen for your journalling notes while away! Trying to think how we can use the infusions to tint the resin, and all i can think is perhaps if they were mixed in with part A (or B) of the resin before combining the 2 parts, then you may have had more success. But no doubt some resin expert will let us know! Have a great trip Jennie! ~ Leandra We always hope that you learn something interesting from our blog.
