More Mini Madness......

Hi all

I'm back to share a few more pages from my Mini Book for Scrap Matrix.

I'm loving the playing, the freedom.

I've been hoping to pop in to the Facebook Shares page with a couple of lives but I've been unwell and not able to talk for that long! 

A shame yes, but my family think its a blessing. Lol

Hopefully soon I'll be back to normal and able to create with you.

Until then here's a few more pages...

I used Art by Marlene Collage Book 3 and Art by Marlene Collage Book 4

and lots of Paints from Dina Wakley and Dylusions to create this cute little scene.

But wait there's more.....

that page on the right hand side opens up.... it has a flap.....

and then you get a lovely panoramic scene!

Too cute...

I love that it is interactive.

So the challenge with this was to make the picture make sense on both sides.

I wanted the pictures to be similar but different.

The above image is one page fully extended and then the below image is the other side, once the page is turned.....

So the little owl and trees that were on the right hand side in the first picture, actually becomes the left hand side of the next page.....

Isn't that cute?!

I simply added a few word stickers to finish them off.

I have a few ideas for some more interactive pages so hopefully I can do a live soon.

I'm really enjoying going mini and loving that it frees me up to try new things.

As you know quite a few of them have become larger journal pages.

Many of you have admired my collage scenes, so maybe going small to start with is a good way to start.

Just draw in a few hills and trees and clouds and get the paint out.

Don't worry too much if it looks messy.

It's adding in the pen work that finished the whole thing!!

Why not have a go?

Much love

Tam

Mini Madness!!!

Hi creatives

I've popped in today to share my take on the 'Mini 'Madness' Challenge over at Scrap Matrix.

I love this challenge.....some  of you may have seen my 'minis' I created last year in an Art by Marlene Aquatober challenge.

A way to try out ideas and play before heading to your larger scale journals.

If you'd like to see this I did a Facebook LIVE on the Scrap Matrix Shares page.

I was so excited when Vicki sent me a tiny album to play with, and the fact that she made it was even better - what an awesome way to use up some of those papers we have in our stash.

If you'd like your own  little book, contact Vicki as she may do a class on creating these.

(She tells me they are easy)!!

Anyway I've rambled enough, let's take a look at my mini creations.

(I haven't done step by steps today.....there's just too many), so I'll include pics and let you know products used and I'm hoping this month to jump on and create a page live as an alternative.

All of these above creations used Dylusions Paints and Dina Wakley paints.

I used the following colours:

Dylusions -  'After Midnight', 'Lemon', 'Strawberry Dacquiri', 'Tropical Sangria', 'Lemon Drop', 'Sour Appertini', 'Crushed Grape', 'Vibrant Turquoise'.

Dina - 'lapis', 'aqua', 'lemon', 'tangerine', 'ruby' and 'apricot'.

I also used a stencil by Carabelle Studio called 'Lit de Petites'

and 'Floral Statement 6x6' by TCW.

I also added some word stickers and a Jane Davenport Stamp set.

These ones were also created using the above Dylusions Paints and Dina Wakley paints but this time I used stamps by Art by Marlene.

I used Girl Boss 3.0 and

 Girl Talk 3.0.

I love how these mix and match...... just perfect for this size and so much attention to detail.

Well hopefully soon, I'll find time to pop in and create a  'live mini' over on our Scrap Matrix Shares page.

Until then get inspired by our current challenge.....

Upload your entry to our Shares page.

Just too easy!!

See you soon
