Table View

A view of my messy work table full of projects I hope to work on and maybe finish a few today.
Junk journal, toe shoes, art journal and ironing!

Found the toe shoes at Savers for $4.99. It was a good day!

Cover with the Statue of Liberty and beautiful metal charm.

Page with Tim Holtz paper clip.

Washi Tape border

Pocket page with opening at the top and stitching and bull dog clip

Steampunk

Just finished up a new steampunk mini album. I was lucky enough to locate a Graphic 45 Steampunk Debutante 12 X 12 paper pack and decided to make another policy envelope album. The new Graphic 45 Steampunk paper is great but I really love the "old" line. Lots of pictures. This will be available on my etsy site

Close up of the charms on the front of the album. They include a clock face, Chinese coin, trinket tag. and three bead charms that I made.

Lovely cover with fussy cut images from the line and 3-d embellishments. I put some fuzzy trim on the binding and a few metal findings.
