Altered Notebook

I'm getting ready for my first online Bible study this week and this is the notebook I altered for my notes, thoughts and prayers.  I am so happy how it turned out and it came together pretty quickly, sort of.

I removed the original green cover by removing the spiral, yes I actually did and not only that but, then I punched every single hole. :)  But I think it's beautiful with all the gold!  The pattern paper is from DCWV Gilded stack.  Gorgeous foil paper!  The image is from Sherri Baldy and the image below is linked to the shop.

I cut the "Blessed" on my Cricut using SCAL2.  {I wish I could remember the font I used.}  The heart frame is also from Sherri Baldy and can be found here.

The wood veneer shapes are from Recollections and Studio Calico.  The gold dome pearls are from Joann's dollar bin and the gold scallop ribbon from Target's dollar spot.

Here's another look:

I forgot to mention, I colored with Spectrum Noir makers. :)

Birthday Violin

This cute violinist is by Sherri Baldy and can be found here.   I colored her Spectrum Noir markers and really wish I had Wink of Stella shimmer pen to add to her flowers.  It's on my crafty shopping list for sure.   I used my favorite color combo, purple & teal.  I stamped the background music and sentiment with Latina Crafter's Citas favoritas stamp set.    

Thanks for stopping by!

Happy Crafting! Yolie

A Happy Hello

I used one of my favorite My~Besties.   The paper is Amy Tangerine and sentiment from Pink and Main.  Here's the link to the Bestie:

I also invite to follow me on Pinterest.  I have been busy Pinning My~Besties onto boards that make sense to me and hopefully you too. :)
