Still working with my Counterfeit Kit! Here's a fun page I made about our last Canada Day experience:
I used this great sketch from Stuck?! Sketches:
Here's a close-up of the journaling and Brenna's face as she got hauled away from the party (she was hopping mad!):
Isn't that just priceless?And I've been digging out the ol' SMASH books and getting some things smashed in there. Here's a double page spread commemorating a trip to Vancouver in my red SMASH book:
I made a little pocket with a Starbucks sleeve by stapling the bottom. It makes a great spot for clothing tags and receipts from my trip. I've also got some inked up boarding passes, a card my friend Alison gave me when we met for the first time, and the ticket stub from the Metric concert I went to.
And here I've got another double page spread in my red SMASH book with mementos from some of the prizes I've been winning lately, mostly from book blogs:
I tried my hand at some form of collage. I've got tissue paper Mod Podged on there with address labels and such. Then I stenciled Distress Ink and Dylusions all over the place, and stamped with CTMH background stamps and Memento ink. The envelope in the centre is held onto the binding with paperclips, and when you flip it, the spread looks like this:
I love how that chevron on the backside of the envelope turned out!
Anyway, that's it for me, hope you enjoyed!
