This week on 'Anything Goes' we were given the opportunity to create anything we wanted to with any items or products on sale at
Suzicraft. Well this in itself made the
project very easy for me as most of the craft products I use have been
bought at Suzicraft because they have very competitive prices and Sue is always
on top of the game and stocks her shop with the most popular products but also
has an eye for papers.
If you see something new in a magazine or tv and you
think you would be interest in it you can guarantee it is already on the
Suzicraft stock order. This along with the fact that we have available
SplodgeAway products as they come hot off the press - I felt
I was given the opportunity to have a good old play in my craft room. So thats
exactly what I did.
I had picked up some gorgeous shaped cards that almost looked like very large
tags in lovely colours and very good quality card stock which gave me the idea
of doing a mini memories journal. I did some computer scrapbooking with my Serif
package printed it off then concentrated on one surface of the 8 sided book one
side at a time. I wanted each surface to look completely different to the other
but with a few pages tying it all together with a hint of a theme, i.e. the big
thing on everyones mind this year is being proud to be British. Which to me
includes the Forces as during my service that was the most proud I have ever
been to be British.
I used papers, card, stamps, inks, glossy accents, spray
and shine, liquid pearls, my splodgeaway mat and Sues beautiful new flowers
along with masks and dies. I really enjoyed making this journal and could have
added a lot more pages.
Hope you like it. Why not have ago yourself, start just with one page and see
where it takes you.
