week[END] collage:

(week 20)

still in love with 12x12.

i really thought and worried maybe a little that PL would cut out a lot of the need for 12x12 pages. turns out that's crazy talk.  i already need another binder for this year. this is the stack waiting for one:

happy sunday.

now to get ready for monday.

Make time: 1 hour.

Still On the mission to transform thrifting/sailing finds into pretty things.
Found a cool wooden tray that someone started to paint and thought: yeah I need to finish that.




So this was the start: (coral again) I started using gold and it was a little too loud, I try to use good spray paint for a one time coverage. $store sprays just don't cut it, it's worth the money in time alone.



I wanted to sort of "tile" it with paper, so I picked some current/permenant favorites and punched them into one inch squares: (I learned later that odd numbers work better if you don't measure)



Ranger makes a glue/seal that I really like..it doesn't bubble and it comes in a matte. Using it I glued all my pieces down and voila! Something I'll actually use.



Happy creating.

Color challenge.

Check out the current color combo on Color me Scrappy. couldn't resist them. Beachy with a pop of dark grey. Here's my take:



I added coral bc I'm a little obsessed with it right now. Happy making!
