Grunge Board/Grunge Paper Wall Hanging

This one wins out, I'll being doing a class on this wall hanging. Thank you so much everyone for your input! I appreciated it!! This one is my favorite out of the three so it will be good to do the one I like best!
Last week was a super busy week for me, worked 6 days! Whew!! The boss was out of town and we got hit with more orders then we could handle!! Thank goodness she will be back tomorrow!!
I also have been doing a lot of make n takes and classes. Here is a pic of the class we did on Fri. night, a little folded album with grunge paper flower. Everyone really had fun making them!

We had a gorgeous day out here today, I think I had a little to much fresh air, TIRED!!
Hope everyone had a good one!

Grunge board/grunge paper wall hangings

Just a quick post this morning, getting ready for work. This little part time job has been pretty much full time lately and I'm not real happy about that! Not enough time to play!! Hopefully it will get better! I made a couple more wall hangings, trying to get one down pat to do a class with, let me know which one is your favorite. I tryed Wendy's technique of stamping on the buttons on the second one, I wasn't real good at it but adds a nice little touch.

Gotta run, have a good one everyone!!

Inspired

Happy Camper here....I got my stash of grunge paper replenished yesterday, along with new Tim Holtz distress inks. Ohhh, I'm really liking Rusty Hinge, Bundled Sage & Tumbled glass!! I finished this wall hanging that I had started inspired by Wendy Vecchi's book. Love all of her projects and her book is fantastic!! I'm not a purple person...not at all!! But a lady in my Grunge Paper Rose Frame class last week did her roses in Dusty Concord and they were absolutely beautiful!! So thought I would try doing a purple flower, not quite the results I wanted but it is ok, should have tryed doing the roses. I did the center of the flower with Wild Honey, I thought it would be lighter. Hello, what was I thinking I know exactly what honey looks like as my dad used to do Bee Keeping as a hobby and did the extracting etc. in the basement!! Oh well, it got a little darker then I wanted but it will do. Fun little project! I was asked what color I used on my roses in the last post and it is Broken China, one of my favorites!! Off to Landi's today to watch the boys tonight. Should be fun and I'm sure I will come home with tons of pictures!! I have to get busy and get some scrapbooking done with all of my pictures!!

Have a good one everyone!!

Tim Holtz Book

Happy St. Patrick's Day everyone! I had my lucky day last Tues., the lady I work for finally found Tim Holtz's book she was going to give to me. Woo! Hoo! I was just about to go ahead and order it as she couldn't find it (can you believe that!) I snatched it out of her hand so fast and did a Happy Dance!!! Went and put it in my car right away so it would not go missing again! lol I have looked at it over and over, need some time to play and try a couple of techniques I haven't tryed before. Awesome Book!!


Here is a couple of wall hangings I had started & stopped for a couple of months now, finally called them good! When seeing it on Wendy Vecchi's blog I wanted to do one, all of her projects are fabulous!!



Busy designing & doing classes, I have had a lot this month for National Craft month! So get busy and do some crafting!!

Have a good one everyone!
