When in trouble...

Looking for a gift idea? Mixed Media to the rescue! :)
Have you ever wondered whether words like 'easy' and 'artistic' can exist in one sentence? France proves that it's totally possible!

You know the feeling when you need a little present, have no time for shopping, feel like scrapping but don’t have hours to do so?

That’s when I like to do this kind of short but fun little project.

I have (dare I say it?) dozens of simple little notebooks, the kind you can get very cheap in packs of 3. Wrapped with kraft bazzil as a protection and some embellishments, they make a neat little gift!

For this one, I used up scraps of a 9^th Wave paper, combined with a Domestic Goddess sticker.

To make it look a little less ‘simple’, I like to add sewing.

 

I stamped with watered down Black Soot Distress ink and added some light touches of Golden Monarch Silk.

Adding a tassel on the side gives it some movement and finishes the dressing up!

Did I mention ‘simple’ but ‘fun’? ;)))
