"Antiqued Journal Cover"


Hello happy crafters, Rhonda here again and another month has passed us by which means I have again spent some productive time crafting away.

A Huge Thank You to our Sponsor for this month is 
My Project this month is call 
"Antiqued Journal Cover"

My project this month was a rather simple and fun one, using a couple of 'SCRAPMATTS' chipboards & charms and other things From my Stash (FMS) to dress up a journal.
I applied some papers to the front & back, inside & out, of a plain wire bound book to give an antique look.


I placed a large Clock Chipboard CB 6063 at the top and to the left I used a Dressform Chipboard CB 6036 over the top of some hemp twine and glued 2 different coloured seed beads for texture.


To bring the chipboards together I filled the space with a large flower 
charm and a paper flower FMS.


To this I constructed a flower made out of a doily, a silk flower as well 
as a flower charm bent inside out. I finished the flower off with one 
of my handmade stick pins and a pearl brad FMS.


To the front of the journal and everything on it i sprayed a heavy coat of Tattered Angel's Glimmer Mist - Iridescent Gold.
