WIMWSW? What's in MY work studio wednesday!!


 







What's in my work studio wednesday?
Fairies wont be playing with the cows today as its still raining!!! 
This is my scrapbook studio-The corner unit i use to display all my latest goodies before i 'let them go' for sale.
Here are the last of the affirmation easel canvas's that I just finished late last night. Today I'll be listing them on ebay - thats one of my jobs. Then onto a custom made 8x8 inch paper bag order which I am pretty excited about as it's PURPLE!!!
Printer has run out of ink and being an "older" style have ordered new cartridges which are taking forever to get here! bit limited coz i cant use it, to address packages etc that need to be sent. Funny how you dont know how much you use something till it's not there anymore??  :-(
Looking at this photo I think I'd better finish that unicorn painting i started over a year or 2 ago too... well maybe after  i restock my ebay shop ?
The too do list includes
*wedding cards- flirty purse style
* gratitude albums
* journals
* memorial album- i haven't done one of these for a while
oh and i have some half finished illustrations ready to be made into cards etc

Have a fairy happy day

Christmas memories custom made lunch bag album











Hot off the card table! My latest custom made album is finished!
I am so happy with this- it's a soft shabby chic style album using gorgeous websters papers pages.
there's a heap of distressing as well as enchanted gold embossing throughout. LOTS of spaces and tags for journalling as well as photo matts that are embossed and just over 6x4 inches to fit a standard photo.
I love this paper so much i think i shall do a 6x6 inch one for ebay!
Looking forward to your comments Jo!

BFF custom made lunch bag album


lots of pretty metallic matt gold with highlights of glossy gold swirls. Page 2 has a fold out flap. The handbag is all glittered and 3d!

detail of 'inside cover'- shoe has been glossy accented with squiggly die cuts out of it.

With the flap closed! The funky purple accents are velvet flocked with gold foiling- so luscious and really pretty.

flap open with gorgeous 3d k & company handbag embellishment

pocket page with 2 large decoarted scallop tags
details of large tags

i have added quite a few black rhinestones throughout.

Another tag pocket page AND library pocket too!

library pocket with tag detail

pocket page with tags details


Wow it's done!
This is something really bold and a bit different for me!
It seems to have taken on a life of it's own.
The brief was black and gold and for some gorgeous gals who love to hang out shop and chat online etc.
It wasnt what i started out to do and just got bolder and brighter as it went along- i think its one of those things you'll love or hate it! I hope she likes it????!
The colours have photographed a bit disappointing- the gold is really pretty and not as flat and dull as it looks here. The purple velvet flocked accents are so luscious and really compliment the contrasting red. I used lots of hearts, princess tiara's/ crowns some texting symbols and stamped  some shopping stuff throughout. the shoes are really high black gloss and I really liked the idea of the hearts with wings symbolising friends "hearts" far away from each other. Went a bit mad with the glitter gold embossing powder on the chipboard too as I really wanted a bit of bling. The black rhinestones i thought looked classy and really finish the accents beautifully. The cover has BFF and also pearl swirls and the last of my prima frame swirl border rub ons.
I liked the modern colours and wanted it to feel rich and contemporary- i hope i fitted the brief??
fingers crossed- I like it I hope she does too?

WIMWSW? What's in MY work studio wednesday!!

Where did that week go????
Hmmmmm probably making hay whilst the sun shone! Literally!!!
1146 hay 6ft rolls YEY- now we just gotta move them......bugger less craft time :-(
So I'm making the most of it whilst the boss is away busy fixing our stock water problems 
( it's got so hot and they drink so much the water and pumps arnt keeping up). Also our well for the house water is almost empty and summers only just started. Drought sucks! It's in the early 30 degrees today it's 9.00 am and already hot hot hot- I hate summer!
So I am now getting busy doing some orders for some lovely ladies and catching up on some new stock for my ebay store  while it's relatively quiet on the farm front. Until the next farm drama anyway.
With any luck i 'll have pic's of this project finished and posted here later today- if i can get off this damn time wasting computer!!
have a fairy happy day
