Font of the Week

Another one from Font Squirrel, Arizonia is a script font that varies from thick to thin.  Maybe nice on a layout, but I think it would really shine on as card sentiment.

UKS Art Journey - week 4

Image

On the UKS Art Journey this week, Julie Kirk is looking at a few stress-free ways of putting the ‘journaling’ into your ‘art journaling’…

 

BlogBits 30/1/2012
Amy-x
 A very pretty layout with blooms and stamping and lots of little details.  Check out what looks like a stitched title.  I so love the little X kiss! A small detail but perfect. Members can click the thumbnail to see it in the Gallery.

 

Layouts: I adore Alexa's rotated sketch .  The placement of the feet/shoes is perfection. Silhouettes are hot and I like Sian's wood-grain take on her layout here . And a summer layout from Kazy1 lifts my winter doldrums. Claireliz is pumpkin mad, but I like it. Maybe it begain as a "mistake"  but I really like the monochrome look of Mole's layout here  - and sorry to hear of the loss of your much-loved pet. Love Laura's Blo-Pen layout on IACW too!

Cards: Cards are a bit thin on the ground this week but I do like the acetate ones from Tinkertaylor. And Alipeep's lime&pink card inthe post here is lovely and intensely coloured. And how feminine and frilly is ozzycat's card here ? Nice vintage card tutorial from terri_ann87.

Other projects: Efemera has such a pretty fold-out book on her blog. Project Life idea from tobysmum - I like the fold sample.Missed this one, I think - pretty B&W mini from YorkshireLass. Pretty, pretty canvas from Gingerscraps. Wombat found a free class and has been playing with paint. Love her sample .I quite like the Zentangled nameplate by angdrumm. And just WOW to Linda_E's journal pages (and here ).  SO eye-catching.

Downloads: Project Life is hugely popular.  I have a couple of printable sets on my blog here and Louise has some fabby ones here . Check out her cover page here - I can't help but think she missed an opportunity to pun off Family Fortunes! Not a download, but CannyCrafter shows a set of stamps for PL she has on order.  Very cute.

Sponsor Blogs: Truly Madly Crafty has a new Challenge on their blog . Looks popular with  380 adding linked projects! Check it out, and the new One Word, One Technique entry here . And what a pretty play with colour at the biskit barrel (a sprinkle of imagination). Not a sponsor blog but something to watch for - Distress Ink Pens , due at CHA andspied by Misteejay. A couple of starting points from Shimelle. Oh and thhe iPhone cover at Pickleberry - very steampunk-y!

 

 

Bender

Image

Bender , with it's cut-out line, offers some interesting possibilities. What about cutting it on your Cameo/Silhouette (the Inline version) and backing it with the Solid version in a contrasting colour?   Or layer it in PSE, the Inline version black over a lighter Solid version? Easier still? Just print the Inline version in black on light cardstock.  Fun!

 

& now...

What's it all about? 12 play-along scrapbooking challenges with full tutorials.  All very different projects.  All projects you can make with whatever supplies you happen to have.  All designed to keep you inspired to craft throughout the year. 

Did you miss Shimelle's Get Ready! post?  See it here . And check back here on the 20th for the full tutorial for the featured project plus ideas for making it your own.

 

 

 

January Printables

Image

Our first printables from SJ -


Floral journal cards, in classic white and kraft or soft blues, perfect for journalling on. Print on 6x4 paper and trim, and if you fancy, round the corners for a softer feel. So lovely!

As with last year members can download the files from the digital forum, and you can see more from SJ here !

We had a slight technical hitch in the way vB works when combining posts - I've contacted SJ about getting the printabvles reloaded and will hope we have them available before the next set in February!
