Simple Stories Mini ~ Hold ATCs & Thank Yous

IMG_3347

I wanted to share with you the finished book.  You might not know that Scrapadabadoo sends out thank you cards with each order and I wanted a place to keep them so, I designed this book to hold my thank you cards and charms.

I created this book from my Steampunk Soiree Book to hold my ATCs from the event.

Inside cover I created the sunflowers from Susan’s Garden sizzix die.  I added the fence from a Magnolia die and hand cut the chicken.  The photo frame is a sizzix instant photo die and the girls are from Prima’s Julie Nutting collection.

Here you can see how I used chicken wire to hang the charms and the soda tabs for the binding.  You can see how it was done on my Ustream channel.  Have a great week.

I made the stand from bicycle gears I didn’t use and Kathy Orta’s bracelet she gave us on the top, which I can remove anytime to wear when I want. 

So, for tonight’s Ustream class we will be continuing with the mini to hold Scrapadabadoo’s Thank You cards.  This mini will be great for atc’s, school photo, project life or any occasion.

I used an embossing folder and then colored it with Prima Color Bloom spray:

Then I took paper clay and formed my mermaid:

Then it is just embellishing the rest of the hat, I used the mega flakes on the cheery lynn clock die and added pearls, lace, bling and ribbon.
