Grief.
Okay, I've got loads to do today, so we're having a little throwback Thursday. Something I love is the Cinch from we are memory keepers. I love this machine - it allows you to create your own bound books from all sorts of materials. I need to dig it out again!
I wrote a magazine article on the cinch, and one of the little note books I made is here:
I used pretty scrapbook papers, and embellished the cover.
Inside, I added plain papers, but interspersed decorative papers here and there. I also made sure I decorated the inside cover
I've just realised my photos seem to have a blur on them. I think I may have a mucky lens. Oops.
Anyway, as normally happens when I share an old piece, I'm now asking for a challenge. You know I love this. Give me 3 items you want my to craft with. It can be anything. It will be picked at random, and the winner will receive whatever I end up creating (which reminds me, I've still got things to post, so sorry if you are waiting on your win!! I'll do a post run tomorrow).
Okay, throw some goods ideas my way.
My three items for the challenge are Cotton wool, wine labels and newspaper.
ReplyDeleteHope the next 20 days bring us some more inspirational pieces of Leonie magic.
Hugs M F M xx
Hi Leonie. can't wait to see where you end up. I've really missed your cheery disposition and northern wit. My three items are washi tape, foil pie containers and Frantage embossing powders. x
