Keep Forward

Hello Zutter world!

Today we are going to take a little

look at my Keep Forward album.

Big Picture just had a festival

Big Ideas Festival in which there

were a series of in depth challenges

for us to search a little deeper into

what we do.

For this particular challenge it

was to set up a layout or page

of that one goal or dream

we are working on.

I decided to set  up an album

to place my goals in but it doesn't 

stop there.

We actually have to move on them

meaning whether it be something small

or big each day just take a step or

two towards that goal.

I have quite a few but there are

key goals that take priority over all.

This album will be dedicated to

those.

           

There are a number of hard cover pages

and Zutter inserts so that I will

have plenty of space to document

my step-by-step process.

This particular album will be

put to good use for sure.

Hopefully we all will continue to

challenge ourselves to dig a little

deeper in our craft and 

continue to grow in it.

Thank you as always for letting me share!

In The City

Greeting to all today!

I take it that school is now in

session for everyone.

I just finished myself registering

and can't wait to get started.

With a little bit more extra time

for us crafters I am sure

we are making good use of

it with some extra creating.

Here is an album I created

titled In The City. Hubby

and I spend quite some time

out and about on the

bus to different places.

It is interesting to capture those

unplanned moments on

the move. This album

was born for such memories.

Enjoy!

Tea Party

Hi everyone, Nancy here today to share with you a mini album to go with the teacup mobile I made a couple of weeks ago.  (If you missed that project you can see it here.)  Once again, I used my Cricut to cut the chipboard and my cardstock; and used my trusty Bind-it-All to bring it all together.  I love that about my Bind-it-All...I can cut just about any shape and turn it into a mini album.  I chose to use one inch, white o-wires to hold this little book, which measures about 5 inches across the top, together.

I filled the mini album with lots of yummy papers and chipboard from the Daily Junque collection from Pink Paislee and a few odds and ends from my scrap table including Prima flowers, lace and trims; as well as some Basic Grey Canvas, a couple of older Autumn Leaves buttons, and a resin piece from Melissa Francess that I colored with some alcohol markers.

 

Here is a close up of the front cover which also has a large pink flower from the Hydrangea Hippo store. 

I was hoping to use this little mini for an upcoming party my daughter is hosting.  But she really wanted to use it now, so we filled it with photos from her third birthday party.  

Thanks for stopping by.

Hugs.

Build A Key Chain with Bind-It-All

Welcome back to yet another

quick idea tutorial!

Today we are going to be 

building a key chain made

from O-Wire Scraps.

If anyone knew me as of

right now I waste nothing when

it comes to crafting in which

I find it hard to toss those

single O-Wire scraps out.

The shape of them alone reminded

me of a key chain loop and

I thought BINGO!!!

I will make a key chain.

Here we go!

There are no set supplies really

for this project except

for your O-Wire and

Bind-It-All. These are

some of the supplies that I used.

Feel totally free to make this

project your very own.

I cut my pieces out ahead of 

time and went ahead and gave

them some embellishment.

Here we see the front and 

back of this key chain.

Make sure to adhere tap on

first and punch whole.

We now have back and front

adhered.

Now we are going to place

key chain element in zip lock bag.

We are going to stitch this element

inside. I hand stitched but if you

have a sewing machine that

is just so much better. You don't 

have to use zip lock bag. It

can be anything translucent that

can be sewn through.

After stitching all around we

are now going to use our

Bind-It-All to put the O-Wire

loop on. Make sure it is looped to

where the seam of O-Wire is on the back.

Here we have finished product!!!

I made the one for my daughter

ahead of time to show that you

can add as many as you want.

My personal key chain is going

to include family. Just key moments

in which I want to look back on.

Again, please make this your

own and let your imagination run

with it.

Here are a few more detail pictures.

Well, I quite enjoyed this even

though it gave me a few

challenges in the beginning. LOL!

It was very well worth it.

Please if you give this project a

whirl share with us. We

love to see what you all

create. 

Thank you for stopping by!!!

Feeling Beachy?

Hi everyone!  Nancy here today to share with you a fun mixed media wall hanging I made using my Zutter Bind-it-All, o-Wires, Canvas Artboard and lots of fun goodies from ClearSnap.

I love the texture and weight of the canvas art board.  It is the perfect weight for heavier items like these small shells.  I began these canvases by spritizing with a mixture of different colors of Smooch Spritz, allowing the colors to bleed into one another.  I then added a bit of gesso and finally a super cute embossed sun.  Did you know that Clearsnap makes scented embossing powders under the Color Box line?  This yellow smells like lemons.  So super fun on a project.

The Zutter canvas readily accepted the different mediums including inks, gesso, spray ink, stamps and embossing.

And the antique brass o-wires complimented my project perfectly.

I had a great time creating this wall hanging and I know you would have fun playing with the art board as well.

 Hugs.

Coffee Sleeves and Instagram

Hi everyone!  Nancy here today to share with you a project I made using some coffee sleeves and my favorite binding tool, the Bind-it-All.


I love using my phone to take photos and have taken bunches of shots using Instagram.  This small format was perfect for these low resolution photos.

I really put my Distrezz-it-All to work to create the shabby chic look I was after. Placing the papers over the coffee sleeves. And then binding with 1 inch Antique Brass O-Wires.

I used lots of different trims and flowers from the Hydrangea Hippo store to coordinate with my Prima Marketing papers.

The size of this album was just perfect for using up some scraps I had lying around from previous projects.

So, have you ever used the Distrezz-it-All?


Hugs.
