Morning and I have a mini accordion book to share, I bought the cover from Tracy Evans during the lockdowns.Covered the cover with distress inks and made all the backgrounds with smooshed inks,script stamp and a selection of stamps from AALL&Create,Veer&Moon,Chocolate Baroque and Pink Frog all coloured with promarkers.The size of the album closed is 3 and a half inches(9cms) by 2 and a quarter inches(5and a half cms) but has still taken me a week to finish lol.

Secrets To Stamping
This is such a beautiful project Carol. Love the shape of the cover too.
ReplyDeleteBees and snails... the bees pollinate and help things grow and the snails eat the growing things. I guess nature has a place for everything. Love the awesome accordion design on this and all the stamping and coloring. You put a lot of work into it and it was worth it!
ReplyDeleteOMG Carol, another fabulous project. I love your country garden theme, it reminds me of a Diary of an Edwardian Lady. I wonder how an alphabet theme would work out; something you could read with a child, lol).
ReplyDeleteThis really is gorgeous.

Ooooo I love your creation Carol, with lots of nice picts đ€©
ReplyDeleteThe smaller they are the more time consuming. This little beauty was well worth the time and patience (probably a few choice words along the way too).I'm making some desk organizer/ notepad folders and they are taking forever and their quite a bit bigger. Hugs Mrs A.
