SCHOOL/STUDY RELATED

I made myself another notebook...this memory challenged crafter is a serial note taker and in this digital day and age where you can ask Siri or Cortana to remind you where you should be and what you should be doing, I confess my preference is still the old paper and pen method...not always reliable but hey ho neither is technology...

I cut the covers from chipboard, applied a coat of White Gesso and dragged Simon Says Stamp Fog Ink Pad across the surface to lightly tint. I stamped Tim Holtz/Stampers Anonymous Number Blocks and Numeric with Pumice Stone Distress Ink and the Studio 490 Circle Collage with Simon Says Stamp Intense Black...

I stamped the image from Tim Holtz/Stampers Anonymous Etcetera with Pumice Stone and added interest to the background with the Cargo and Bubble Layering Stencils using Candied Apple and Peeled Paint Distress Oxide inks...

stamped the text from Tim Holtz/Stampers Anonymous Stuff To Say with Simon Says Stamp Intense Black and the numbers inked with Salty Ocean Distress Oxide.

I stamped the images from Mini Blueprint 8 on to scraps of Distress Watercolor Card with Simon Says Stamp Intense Black, coloured with Distress Markers using the Detailer Brush and shaded around the edges with Walnut Stain Distress Oxide using a blending tool...

I stamped the letters using Tim Holtz Type Lower Foam Stamps on to Tissue Wrap using Candied Apple and Peeled Paint Distress Paints...

cut out and fixed to the background with Collage Medium Matte.

I added Idea-ology Alpha Transparent Tiles, Clipping Stickers, Ruler Pieces and a Paper Doll...

and an Idea-ology Quote Chip...
