Card Joy

Here's just a few cards I thought I would share with you all. Pretty simple.

Duct Tape Wallet

So, I'm waaaaaay behind the times, however tonight while watching tv, I decided to try my luck at a wallet free handing it. This is number 2. Still not perfect by any means, working on putting in a clear pocket for the ID. However, that will come soon. Heck maybe before this is posted, I'll have added a new one with more pictures of newer ones. Yes for those who are wondering a simple 10 minute video is coming, cause yes it's that easy, 10 minutes and you have a wallet.

Here are some I got the plastic in for the ID cards.

Stencil Pillow- in progress

So, after some playing around on Pinterest. I decided I had yards of canvas I had purchased a few days prior and I would go ahead and begin some of my mini albums, projects and a pillow idea I had saw. This is just the beginning. None the less thought I would share how great they are coming along! More to come on the other canvas projects SOON!

I first cut the fabric 14x14, this way I have an inch inseam for sewing to get a 12x12 pillow. Then I laid out this nifty $1 stencil i got from Hobby Lobby and began painting. I used painters tape to hold it down and then made sure when I was painting I had good pressure on it so it didn't smudge getting under the stencil too much. I worked form left to right. 

This is what it looks like right now drying. Makes me squeal just a little when I see it. Not even going to lie, I'm stoked about these. I hung this one from my Clip it up to dry. Worked well. Now to sew and stuff. 

Ink Splatter & Blow

Like I stated before I've been all about taking 30 minutes to myself and just playing in my journals. Sometimes ubber messy and takes 2 days to dry out and sometimes just something simple to express myself and feel like I've done something. This is one of those journal pages, just screwing around, playing with some india inks and gesso and of course masking tape! Not going to say I'm a huge fan of the page however, it's a page and let me be creative if only for 30 minutes. After looking at these pictures I'm even thinking I was to go in and do some writting with the ole pen, hmm we shall see. 

Bare Journal Update

So, a month or so ago I created a bare journal, a knock off of some of the great bare products out there. I loved it as well did many of you. I got the covers done to this book, well okay their not done but I got more done on them. Little by little it's coming together. The cover isn't completely finished but it's going in that direction for sure. If you missed the making of this great journal check it out here. http://craftdonkey.blogspot.com/2012/03/tutorial-thursday-bare-stuff.html
