Happy Monday friends! Today I am sharing mixed media bookmarks I created using my gel plate and a variety of pretty stamps from the shop! This bookmarks were super easy to make and fun! I put on some Bebe Rexha on my Itunes and just played for a few hours!

To begin, I used a palette knife to apply a dab of acrylic paint onto my gel plate and then I used a brayer to smooth out the paint onto the plate.

It won't look like there's a lot of paint, but you don't want to over saturate your plate with paint. A little goes a long way!

I used my Sizzix and metal bookplate dies to create a few bookmarks.

I placed the bookmark face down on the gel plate to lift the paint from the gel plate. I repeated this process using variety of acrylic paints.

Here are the bookmarks. I love the distress look of these!! Just wait until I add some stamps... So cool!

I used the Arrows and Strings stamp set to add the scribbled border around the bookmarks. I love this stamp set!

Next, I used the Never Grow Up stamp set to stamp the rainbow image and "dream big" sentiment at the bottom of the bookmark.

To complete the bookmark, I added some gems, ribbon and the chipboard star.

I created the second bookmark using the Oh Baby Stamp Set and a few markers to color in the images. I love this one so much. Isn't this adorable?!

Thank you for stopping by today!! Hope you have a fabulous week!

Cześć!

Wiecie, że nim się obejrzymy będą wakacje? Ja wciąż się zastanawiam gdzie te wszystkie dni uciekają tak szybko.

No ale skoro wakacje to wyjazdy, wypady, weekendowe podróże przed nami! Ja już czekam z niecierpliwością - bo jak podróże to i zdjęcia będą a co za tym idzie papieru cięcie i oprawianie wspomnień :)

I dziś chcę Wam pokazać jedną z wersji albumu - w exploding boxie. Baza jest dość duża bo ma ponad 13 cm wysokości a w środku znajduje się rozkładana harmonijka albumowa.

Jako tło do zdjęć posłużyły mi papiery, stemple oraz dodatki z kolekcji Lazy Days. Cudowne stemple żarówki z elementami krajobrazu w środku są strzałem w 10 i zagościły w mojej pracy kilka razy. Również kropkowane kształty świetnie wypełniły tło pod zdjęciami i kompozycjami. Nie umknęły mojej uwadze także stemple z napisami - idealnie dopełniają kompozycje.

Nowością w tej kolekcji są ramki, w różnych rozmiarach i kolorach - każdy znajdzie coś dla siebie :) użyłam ich do wyodrębnienia elementów na zdjęciu a także to stworzenia napisów-tabliczek. Jak widzicie są bardzo uniwersalne i mogą mieć wiele zastosowań.

I mój ulubiony element czyli naklejki - zarówno te na transparentnym tle, kolorowe ale także chipboardy i enamel dots'y. Te ostatnie są we wszystkich kolorach tęczy co pozwala je dopasować do każdej kompozycji.

Ja się świetnie bawił przy tworzeniu tego albumu i nie mogę się doczekać kiedy znów będę miała zdjęcia z kolejnych wypadów do oprawienia :)

A na koniec mam dla Was krótki film, na którym możecie zobaczyć album z każdej strony, wszelkie szczegóły i kompozycje - miłego oglądania :)

Ciepłych dni Wam życzę :)

Ściskam!

clear stamps

Hello everyone! How are you? It's Lory here today and I am so excited to share a tutorial to create a pocket mini album. So easy and fun! The latest collection from Studio Forty, Lazy Days, is simply stunning and you can use it to tell travel, trip, little vacations, I love it to pieces! It's so delicate and colorful at the same time.

I have used the whole collection, from the 12x12 patterned papers to the embellishments, to the beautiful clear stamps. So let's start to show you how I have built my mini.

THE COVER

First of all you need of three pieces of cardboard in the following sites: two covers of 10 x 18,5 cm and a third piece for the inner of 3,5 x18,5 cm. Choose one of the Lazy Days collection patterned papers and cut a rettangole of 28 cm with by 24 cm length this allow you to have the right quantità of paper to fold the paper on the four sides. Take a look at the following pictures.

I have used the tacky glue to adhere the paper to the cardboard with the help of the folding pleat. In the same way I have covered the inside of my mini album cover structure. Cut a rettangole of 23 cm widht by 17,5 cm length.

Now it's time to embellish the cover giving a title to the minialbu. I chose a little chipboard frame and the little phrase stamp "every Summer has a story". It's so beautiful.

Before to stick the frame to the center of the cover of my mini album I have taken a tangle of blue cotton thread playing it behind the frame.

INSIDE THE ALBUM

Now it's time to create the insedi of your mini album creating 6 little pocket. So choose 6 diffrent paterne papers and cut 6 rectangles in the following size, fold them on three sides at 1 cm form the borders, right, left and bottom edge.

11,5 x 9,5 cm (blue paper)
11,5 x 8,5 cm (pink paper)
11,5 x 8 cm (planes paper)
11,5 x 10 cm ( flowers paper)
11,5 x 8,5 cm (exagons dotte paper)
11,5 x 8,5 cm ( yellow paper)

Here the 6 pockets that you will adhere to the inside of the cover starting from the pocket you chose to place on the top, then the medium and then the last one. Stick each of them putting the glue on the three sides. Use a little circle punch to create the opening of the envelope.

Now have fun embellishing each pockets with fussy cutting, with stickers, with stamps. I have used a lot of journaling cards and on one side I sticked a picture of the past summer!
