#ABCAPRIL2026, Day 19 Q

Q - not the easiest letter of the alphabet for crafty ideas. I thought about Queen, but I did that last year. Also thought about Quill, but couldn't come up with how to use that one. I decided on something odd, Quirky, if you will. I think this works. 

Might be my new favorite dangle. I love it.

#ABCAPRIL2026, Day 18 P

Day 18 of #abcapril2026 is P for Polka dots and Pockets. Design by idaizee (see her you tube channel for tutorial on this one page wonder folio.)

Papers used here are the 12x12 paper pad called Fabulous by Authentique. Aren't they so cute!?  
I also used lots of stamps, most of these are by Heidi Swapp. 
We also have a hidden paper clip on this pocket. Look at Rita's swimsuit ... even she has polka dots!

#ABCAPRIL2026, Day 17 O

Day 17, O - One page wonder

One page wonders are always fun, I think. There are so many clever people out there who come up with the coolest ideas. This one I made today is about as simple as they come. One sheet of 8.5x11 paper, fold and sew, or glue if you aren't the sewing type. I used a page from Crafty by Toni's 30K Freebie digital kit for my project. Butterfly, photo, and other paper embellishments are included in the kit. These papers are so gorgeous - and she has generously given them free! Check out her ko-fi shop and download your kit.

I used a velcro closure for mine.

Mini license plates

Such a fun digital file by Jennifer Beebe Art on Ko-fi. These license plates look so authentic irl with this amazing faux rust. Quarter for scale

Just look at the detail. It looks and acts just like real rust. Can you guess what it is? Check out Jennifer's Instagram where she shows you exactly how to do it. Did you guess yet? It is instant coffee!! Yep. Cool

Teeny tiny screw top brads by Tim Holtz. They give these mini license plates an amazingly realistic finished look.
