Umbrella Lady Flipout

Last piece from my 3 in 30 challenge. I used the same pictures as the last one but bigger. I folded it in half added a piece of doily. I cut up two small pictures and glued them to the doily. I also added washi tape to the inside of the bend to give it extra strength. last I glued graph paper to the page to make more writing space.

Beautiful Vintage Girls Tag

Yes, this is another umbrella piece. I couldn't stand having the two girls split apart. It reminded me of how my 2 kids look alot alike but are totally different or polar opposites from each other. So I glued the picture down on coffee dyed paper. I added a bit of lace. Then I knew I needed to something small to it. I finally decided onto a tea tag piece.

Umbrella Tuck

I did another 3 in 30 challenge Letter U. I used Umbrella for letter U. I found a few cute prints with the online free New York domain website and printed them off. This one I used old book page for backing. I guled down the picture of the lady holding the umbrella. I took one of my fabric cluster and glued it into the right hand corner to add some pop.

Purple Mini Journal

I spent alot of time outside today. It made me feel inspired to make another mini journal. There were lots of blooming lilacs around which is rather late in the season this year. So I found cute purple scrapbooking paper (Blue Fern Studios)  and built off it. I did a video of how I made this piece. I also decided to add it to my mini journal collection. I will be selling at flea market as small items during 4th of July weekend. I have been trying to get done with alot of my flea market stuff done. I spent most of my day coffee dying outside.

Floral Dream Tag

I took a piece of the hanging file folder. I glued a thin piece of wallpaper I used for my cover Floral Bunny Mini Journal. I added a piece of floral blue fabric. I stamped a small rose with Archival Ink as background to create depth. I stamped "Hope all your Dreams come true" and glued it on top of the floral blue fabric. I then cut the corners of the tag and used the hole punch. I found a blue piece of yarn on the desk and used it as a tag topper.

In the Garden Card

I wanted to make a journaling card that would be cohesive with the Floral Bunny Mini Journal I made. So I took a used old book page as a base. I used an old piece of paper that was blank on one side and reused it for journaling space. I glued a piece of the wallpaper I used on the cover onto it. I stamped one of the stamps I used for decorating the papers. It is a gate with flowers on it. I am unsure how old the stamp is but I do know it is unmarked and I bought it from Escanaba, MI Goodwill in 2017. Most of my stamps have been sitting in a storage unit since 2018. Then I stapled a piece of blue fabric to make a tab.

Black & White with 1 color

At first I wasn't sure what to do for ArtsyStamper Design Team Project June 1st: Black & White
with 1 Color. I spotted a picture of my great grandparents holding hands on July 4, 1941 on a carnival ride. I thought it would look so cute with a flower and seniment from ArtsyStampers digital kits. I used AsterGarden Digital Stamp Set for the flower and Field Flower Silhouettes Digital Stamp Set. I put them together on open office draw and made it the size I want it to be 3 inch by 5 inch. I found some decorative wallpaper and cut it in 6 inches by 12 inches. I knew it was too big but after I glued my picture to the wallpaper I ruler ripped it to size. I used a decorative cord.
