Studio Update, a New PaperCrafting Project, and an Old Special Project. . .

A season to create. . .

Remember that desk I pictured in a previous post--well here it is now. . .

Old Desk--almost clean.

I have made good progress--

Studio, Studio, Studio. . . having fun with the big cabinet.  So many options--what to store in it and where should all the treasures go in it??? Can’t resist putting some decorative items on these shelves--of course I move things around daily.

Here it is so far!

Off to buy one more ugly storage drawer system to put in the middle bottom compartment. 

Here is the middle compartment.

Well, it is in place and full--looks messy doesn’t it.  It is organized and my score board, paper trimmers, laminating machine, Zyron refills, and large paper will fit here. 

Now About Projects---the newest project is a mini album based on Wilna Furstenberg’s Family Album. I will be using several cool techniques in this project--applying modeling paste with stencils, filling the frame on the cover with resin, enhancing pages with watercolor elements, layering papers and embellishments, as well as spraying gold paint to create shiny backgrounds papers for some of the pages. Michael’s $1 frames make great covers and a sweet concertina is the perfect binding. Eight pages with delicate grey and pink papers and embellishments along with sweet pictures will make it a favorite. 

Here is the cover--maybe!

Here is a sneak peek at one of my special projects.

Special Grands Book.

Here are parts and pieces--they will be bound into a book that I hope will be treasured by my Grands someday. I will share more later.

Better go for now--need to go watch the rain.

May all the seasons be sweet to you!
