January Inspiration by Judy

Hello!

It's Judy here sharing a little inspiration!

I created an altered notebook using

"Venice Mask".

I started by coloring the image with Prismacolor pencils 

& gels pens and fussy cutting. Next I pulled out a notebook, 

chose papers that would coordinate well with the image

 and a Fishers template to cut  frame.

I added some embossing to the frame with a 

Cuttlebug border embossing folder.

 I added DCWV DP to the notebook cover.

                                 

I glued ribbon to the cover, in order to tie the notebook shut,

and added the frame on top

Next I added the image to the frame.

The sentiment was computer generated and stamping was added

to frame the sentiment before die cutting with a

stamp and die from Hot Off the Press.

I also added some stickles to the flower on the mask.

To finish I added some feathers behind the image.

Here's a closeup

Victoria's January Inspiration Post

Hello!! It's Victoria here I'm stopping by to share my inspiration post for this month. I've created my very first Centre Stepper Birthday Card using a Cute As A Button image called I'm Sweet On You. This image is one of the new release images the other beautiful new images can be found at the Cute As A Button Store.

I've coloured her with a mixture of Touch Five Markers and Watercolour Pencils. To create the backgrounds I've used Distress Inks like water colours. I die cut some balloons, coloured them to match the image colours and added string to them to create some interest to the sides. The die cut at the bottom is a Spellbinders die cut. Then I've finished off with a big handmade bow. I hope you like my card.

We'd love it if you could stop by and see the current challenge going on at the Cute As A Button Challenge Blog and the Progressive Challenge on the Cute As A Button Facebook Group.

Thank you for taking the time to read my post.
