A little Inspiration

Here is a little bit of inspiration for the day. I have been working on a new project that showcases my chipboard- view the cover here.  I love love the cover and have started created the pages for inside.  I decided each page needed sewing and pull outs, I am using metals, ephemera and rub ons from my stash.  I had so much "Stash" that I am able to make 4 kits, yes i know sad.

When i start creating a layout, i pull all the elements i want to use.  Then i play with them until i create a layout i am happy with.  Here is when camera phones come in handy, i take a picture then i can pull everything apart to ink, distress, paint etc..  Then i can use the photo to put the layout back together.

The REVEAL!  I added texture with paint and stencil then doodled around, covered the pockets and added tags inside.  Painted, sanded and inked chipboard, then finished with washi tape.  I sewed the finished layout onto album page.

Now only 8 more paged to go.
