July Art Group

I attended the July Art Group at


We learnt to distress with paints, stencils and stamps

Here are some of my pages


I distress painted the back side of a
Snickers Ice Cream box
then stamped this lovely Dress form
I will add embellishments soon


Then on this Sample tile from Lowe's
I paint the back side of the tile with gold and black metalics
Then modge podged a black paisley napkin to it.
Will add some laces and gems to this later


On to my manilla envelope on the front side
I painted, distressed, layered and had tons of
Fun expermenting with things
Then I stamped the Fluer De Lis and Cherish on top
Of it all. I have a few small embellisments left for this side
but for now
I like it just fine


The backside of the manilla envelope
I did the same using different distress techniques
And some other fun stamps
A little hand work with my pen
and It is looking pretty good too


I messed a bit with this paint chip ..
Will soon be a fun
Pull out tag


Miss Tracy shared a product that is easy to come by
The packaging from something Prima!

We used different napkins modge podged onto it
On the front I used three different napkins



On the back side I used just one beautiful napkin
Next Month we will be swapping nakins
To build our stash you see!


Then on my own I did a few fun things also
I covered my rings with cute little fabrics covers


A bit of doodling here on my ticket to CATS!


To Zentangles on my Cherrioes Top


Then I Tangled the backside too


Then I had to add a piece of the now famous
Reclaimed Quilt I have been playing with
I made a cute pocket on my pink glittery page


I added a few gems to this page that will soon
Be a journaling page in my book


I hope you are enjoying the journey of my book..
 Cannot wait till next months class
To see what Susan teachs us to do

Happy Garbage Collecting..... hehehe!

This is such a good idea - I nearly have the urge to get to my keepsake box and put one together - almost! ;D
