Tea Break Card - By Kimi

Hello again bloggers, I have a quick little card share for you all today.  I am coming to the end of my November kit....yes I know it is December already, but shhhhhhh we won't mention that will we?  I have cheated a little bit readers and used a card base....you know the blank ones that you can buy.  I have used a cream coloured packet.  Be sure to check out Scottie Crafts  for their range of colours.

I have used the last bits from the Choc Chip and adhered them to my card base.  I then added some apricot coloured ribbon along with two layers of lace.  I created my corner cluster with a paper doily and a diecut from the Spellbinders Beaded Ovals die.  I left the cut in the die and lightly inked up the exposed areas to give me the two different tones with Tim Holtz Victorian Velvet Distress ink. I also added a rubon sentiment from the collection.

I have layered up the corner of the card with some cuts from the Sonora Rose Memory Box Die, which you can only just see as I then added some mulberry paper flowers from my stash and a couple of little Prima flowers.  I then finished off the layers with the little lady from the Collectables.

Well bloggers that's it from me this week. A very quick share indeed!!  Thanks again for joining me   

Till next time remember to .....

Shabby Chic Altered Notebook ~ by Kimi

Hello everyone, today I am back to share with you all one of my last projects from the Tea Break Collection by Kaisercraft.  This paper has been great to work with and I am a little sad that is just about all gone. I have a few scraps left and that is it.

This note pad or I should say notebook, was one that I picked up at my local cheap shop.  They were going extra cheap so I grabbed quite a few.  I think these will make a great personal gift giving idea for that hard to buy for friend or family member.

I have used papers from the 6.5" paper pad to cover the front and some of the pretty stickers from the sticker sheet.

I have also used some of the cutouts from the Jam Drop and Kingston sheets and added them to the inside front cover and first page.

I have also covered the pen with some scraps.

I decorated the back cover inside and out

I have cut out some letters using the Tim Holtz ~ Typeset ~ Alterations die and layered them on some more scraps from the papers.  I then coated this in some glossy accents

The gorgeous flower that adorns the front cover is from my scrapping bestie Tash and the bling is from my stash.

Sorry guys no real tutorial or how to this time round and I only have the before and after pics.  I did gently prise the o~wires apart and remove the covers first.  I then re-punched the holes using my crop-a-dile.

Thanks for stopping by and spending some of your day with me. Hope you are all having fun filled Saturday.
