CREATIVE ARTISTE MIXED MEDIA #112





We are back at Creative Artiste Challenge Blog after our Christmas break and hope you are all ready to join in with us again for another year of fun Mixed Media. I fancied having a go at a mini book.  It actually ran away with me and I made more pages than I had originally anticipated - it became quite addictive. It's quite a small little book - 4" x 5" and I simply folded sheets of paper and then did a seam binding with some Tim Holtz tape.  

All stamps used are Alison Bomber stamps from Paper Artsy.  I also used Tim Holtz collage paper Photographic.  I added some stickers from Tim Holtz Idealogy and tried to match appropriate sentiments to the images. 

I had great fun making this little book and would encourage anyone to have a go and just play. 














I'm adding this into the following:

The Outlawz Challenge - not a card 
CRAFT - AG 
FAbnFunky - include stamped image 
Allsorts -- AG 
Daisy Chain challenges - layer it up
