Do Not Look Inside

Back again - with one of my creations to share!

This time its a book - so a few more pictures to show.  Most of the images contained within the book are PaperArtsy, but you will also find many Tim Holtz products, not just the edge die cuts (love them :)) but copious amounts of glossy accents to add to the overall texture, and my favourite Rock Candy Distress Stickles (my personal favourite).

Well here goes - plenty of pictures to share!


Front page - a frame from Maya Road on top of a chipboard square from Magenta.  You can also see the seam binding ties that were coloured using distress inks.  The main body of the book was created with a 12 x 12 piece of cream card which was then turned into an accordian book.  I found a video on YouTube which gave me the idea for the technique.

First few pages - plenty of PaperArtsy images and uses of Texture Fades embossing folders.  The fence was coloured several times to get the right shade, then spritzed with Walnut ink and Rock Candy Stickles.

As you can see some of the pages have a pocket in the top and a small tag with a small piece of the seam binding attached.

The next few pages show some of the little houses. PaperArtsy stamps were stamped several times so i could create some dimension to the page.  Glossy Accents were also added to windows and doors.

You can also see some spritzed stencil designs - using a spray i created with Distress inks and Perfect Pearls, added to bring a bit of glitz and sparkle.

Once again liberal applications of Rock Candy to the Tim Holtz die cut can be seen.

Last page - another PaperArtsy image with the opposite page embossed with a texture fades folder, then coloured with various shades of Distress Inks.

Well thats it for now - hope the images are inspiring.  I hope to share some more projects with you very soon.



Be creative!
