Mini journal - lots of photos

Searching for other things in my stash, I ran across this 7 Gypsies chipboard tag book that I've had for who even remembers how many years. I pulled it out and decided it was time to use it and I am thrilled with the results. Because it's lumpy, and of course, we all know I love lumpy journals, I had to remove 3 of the original 'pages' so there are 7 pages rather than 10. It measures 2.5x5 inches.

Elastic closure over Tim Holtz metal knob fastener. Cover 'papers' are all washi tapes. 



Dapper gentleman is a digital image by Tattered Rose Paper Co. on Etsy.
This was sort of an experiment that turned out pretty good. Circle photo placed on hot glue and pressed with flat wax seal stamp, then rubbed with gilded foundry wax. Kinda neat.
Historical image from my files; Tacoma WA where I was born. No, I wasn't born at the gas station! LOL




Another historical photo of my hometown. I love finding these.

This one is Pike Place Market.



A nod to my business college days in the 70s where I started school two weeks after high school graduation. 

Another beautiful dapper gentleman. 
Tiny envelope. I love making them. 


This is the book in case you want to search for it. I'm not even sure they can still be found, actually.

Thanks for stopping by the studio.

Another one sheet folio

Another great 8.5x11 one sheet folio design by The Gentle Palette. I used a digital paper, printed front and back, for this one as well, in addition to digital ephemera pieces, and of course, a dangle.
