Cute matchbook style ticket books
#ABCAPRIL2026, Day 25 V
Day 25 of #abcapril2026 is letter V - Vintage, Vellum
Today's project is another jumbo tag. These make great pockets or tucks in a journal, and/or a nice spot on the back for journaling.
Vellum butterfly faux postage stamps. Die by Elizabeth Crafts.Making charms and dangles is so much fun. I love this image of the sweet children and had to make it a focal point. So cute. By the way, this one is made with glossy accents instead of UV resin, which is also a great option for these as it dries so much faster.

#ABCAPRIL2026, Day 24 U
#abcapril2026 Day 24, letter U for Utilize the Underused. I have several tools and products in my stash that I don't use often, so for today's project I utilized my paper crimper. As much as I love the look it gives and the texture it provides to your piece, I don't think of using it as much as I would like. Anyway, here is my project using the paper crimper.
For my crimped pieces, I used a scrap of file folder and a torn piece of packaging envelope.Ribbon, cheesecloth, charms, eyelet, jump rings and bulb pin add even more texture.
#ABCAPRIL2026, Day 23 T
Only a week left of #abcapril2026. Seems like we just started this series, but here we are. It's been fun and I love having something to work on every day. I did miss posting yesterday as I was not home, but here we go with Day 23, T for Tabs.

#ABCAPRIL2026, Day 22 S
Day 22, S for Sentimental.
For this project I used the gorgeous new paper collection, Faded Memory Lane by 49 and Market. Yesterday's tags and die cuts, you may remember, were all cut from the packaging this collection comes in. I did not purchase the journaling kit that is part of the collection, but made my own journal from the pieces I did purchase. It's just so beautiful. I'm still trying to figure out why I didn't get the journal kit, but oh well. Must have had a reason, I guess. LOL
My finished journal measures 6 1/2x4 1/4 inches closed, and 10 1/4 inches open.
