Recipe book - C is For Cookie - AVSC

Hi All, 

Here we are again with a Creative Team project for 

Aunty Vera Scrap and Craft - AVSC

This month 'June' is themed 'C Is For Cookie" and yep it's my favourite topic

'COOKING'

Of course I had to create a recipe book and with this gorgeous paper it turned out perfect..

This design was cased from Kathybydesigns.com Here

Cut five pages 8 inches x 5 inches. Score at 3 5/8 inches x 4 3/8 inches.

 On one page fold as shown. 

On one page fold 1 1/8 inch both sides and fold back on itself  as shown.

Use strong adhesive on the top and bottom flap only so it makes a pocket. When you add it to the  book, adhere the whole top and bottom to the next page  

 I used a white page so you can see where to adhere the black pages as an example.. Adhere under the black page on the edges.

Place the pages together and sew down the spine or use strong adhesive to keep it together.

Cut all the mats out and ink around the edges.

Cover of book.. 3 3/8 inch x 4 3/4 inch. Cut four - cover, inside & back, inside. 

Mats: 1 1/2 inch x 4 7/8 inch, 1 inch x 4 7/8 inch, 1 3/8 inch x 4 7/8 inch Cut two of each. 

I mucked up with this measurement so you will see an assortment of papers on this page.. 

I cut a square, 1/8 inch smaller than the triangle and then cut that in half on the diagonal. 

Adhere the edge and the bottom together to form a pocket..

Cut 3 3/8 inch x 4 7/8 inch cut four.

Using the Mosaic template, place on the Wax Lips Bazzill cardstock (love , love this colour) and pat Versa Mark ink over top.

Pour Vintage Pearl Embossing Powder Here over top as shown. Tap off excess and heat emboss. 

You can see in this photo I have started to heat emboss on the outside - shiny and bright.

I rubbed Archival Coffee on top of the embossing and though you might not see it here, it
actually made a gold colour.. Happy coincidence for me..  

Cover is decorated with stickers from the sticker sheet.. I made them into a shaker topper.. 

(you cannot have to many shaker cards lol)

The Inside Cover I used a cut-apart from one of the 12 x 12 inch papers and made it a pocket to hold a tag with recipes.. 

The fold back flap with tags in both sides is Page One.

Page Two has the fold down flap with a couple of recipe tags on the top and one under. 

Page Three I made a pocket with a cut - apart and printed a few recipes together and folded one over the pocket as shown.. I added another tag behind it..

Page Four I left simple with a printed recipe.

I covered the spine with washie tape Here by simply wrapping it completely around the spine. 

Page Five I created a waterfall using the idea from Gina Here over at AVSC. This has recipes on the pages..

Page Six  I did a fold down flap with a pocket underneath.. 

Again I used Gina's Idea Here to create this..

Page Seven is a mirror image from page two. I made a little booklet from the cut apart paper and tied it with string.. I tucked it underneath the flap.

Page Eight is a mirror image from page one.

The inside Back Cover has a cut - apart as a pocket with a tag in it.

For the Spine I stamped Coffee Understands from Picket Fence Here on to sticky back canvas and adhered it to the spine..

Journal - It's A Brand New Day - AVSC

Hi all,
I hope you like what I created with the Box I received from the Evil Enabling Aunty Vera
 this month..
I love the wrapped Journal Die from Sizzix -Eileen Hull. There are just so many things you can create from it and I thought for it's a brand new day in January why not create one for my poetry
and stories from 2019.. 

I cut a Wrapped Journal HERE from a piece of strong cardstock and painted both sides with
Gesso HERE.
( Don't use a shim with this die as it cut all the scored lines, ask how I know this lol)

I sponged the journal with Distress Oxide Inks HERE in the order as follows:

 Fossilized Amber, Wild Honey, Iced Spruce, Fired Brick and Frayed Burlap.

Spray separate colours with water and dry before adding the next colour. I did this to both sides.. 

Looks Pretty don't you reckon...

I embossed a piece of brown cardstock with the 'On The Go' Texture Fades HERE by Tim Holt and cut a strip for the front of the journal.

I die cut the Credit Card Sleeve and Tags HERE by Eileen Hull in embossed dark brown 

and edged it in gold pen HERE.

A strip of washie tape HERE and a stamped coffee cup backed with 3D foam tape finished off the front.

The three tags from the Credit Card Sleeve and Tags using the stamps with the Core Products.

How great does this look together..

The inside of the right hand side of the Wrapped Journal. I stamped the coffee cup rings all over the inside of the journal. I then punched the cups (minus the handle lol) and popped them up using 3D Foam Tape over two strips of the lovely paper..

Inside of the journal. Using the same coffee stain stamp, I stamped it over the journalling card to give it a uniformed look..  A small coffee cup stamped on the flowered paper and fussy cut finishes off this side with a bit of glitter (of course)..

I cut a piece off the border paper for the front and covered it in Nuvo Crystal Drops after adding a little Kindy Glitz to her dress and lights.. I then fussy cut two tea cups (tea for me please) and popped them up using 3D Foam Tape. I also painted them with  Nuvo Crystal Drops.

The Wrapped Journal..

I Hope I have

Inspired you to Create

Glorious Things

Hugs

An Interactive Card - It's a Brand New Day - AVSC

Hi all,
I have another project to show you for Aunty Vera Scrap and Craft and January is a It's a Brand New Day Theme..Aunty Vera gave us three Core Products and the Creative Team chose their add on's..

I love this paper Coffee from Echo Park HERE and with the gorgeous

Eileen Hull - Credit Card Sleeve & Tags   Add on I chose.

I created a card that you can interact with..
All the parts ...

Using washie tape join the two frames together as shown and cut out from your choice of paper..

Cut Two pieces white cardstock at 4 inches x 7 1/4 inches

Score at 1 inch and 1 1/2 inch both ends of the two pieces..

Cut a journalling card as shown to adhere to the middle as shown approx 4 1/4 inch x 4 inch.

I measured down 7/8th inch..

I then measured the front of the other piece of cardstock 0.7/8 inch and taped the large frame with washie tape as shown..  

Cut it out.. The mat is 4 1/4 inch x 4 inch.

Cover the front of the other piece of cardstock as shown..

Cut two pieces at 0.7/8 inch x 3 7/8 inch

Cut two strips at 0.3/8 inch x 4 inch

Adhere the frame as well.

Fold front of card as shown with the valley and mountain folds..

Cut two pieces of acetate at 2 inches x 1/4 inch and adhere as shown, place tea cup and tea pot on the end of the acetate strip..

Adhere the two pieces together.

Top view of the card..

Now to decorate, this was from the 

Echo Park - Coffee - Die-cuts - Ephemera - 33 pieces HERE

I painted some glitter and Nuvo Crystal glaze on the card in different places.. 

The Finished Card.. You can push the two end towards the middle and the tea pot looks like it is pouring out tea over the cup.. Really cool but couldn't take a pic and hold it lol..

NOTE:

I brought this Marianne Design Craftable Passe-Partout rectangle die off the net and as I was playing with it today, I thought I wonder if it would be any good for that card I made and guess what YEP !! it fits perfectly with the eileen-hull-credit-card-sleeve-tags..HERE 

Before..

With the die frame, I chose red to make it stand out ... I love it.. What do you think..

I Hope I have

Inspired you to Create

Glorious Things
