IMAGINE Crafts + Altered Pages

Hi everyone and happy Tuesday :)

Each Tuesday during the month of June, IMAGINE Crafts would like to share with you the projects that our Artists In Residence have created using products from Altered Pages. The Design Team at Altered Pages will also be featuring IMAGINE Crafts/Tsukineko products on their blog throughout the month and we hope that you'll visit the Altered Pages Blog to see the fabulous projects that their team has designed as well.

 

Altered Pages sent us some wonderful goodies, such as vintage pictures, vintage dictionary pages and sheet music etc, some ribbon and charms and two lovely collage stamps.


I chose to use the following products from Altered Pages (see picture below) for my card:
  • a page from an old french dictionary
  • a silver key charm
  • some blue seam binding
  • white crochet ribbon
  • "Muse PARIS" stamp
And of course some inks, markers and tools from IMAGINE Crafts/Tsukineko!


Ohhhh... and I am so excited to show you my project,  because this is a special combination of "styles", which I both really love: "clean and simple" style meets "romantic/vintage" look :)




Here are the other Artists from IMAGINE Crafts with their amazing projects:

  2. Love, love, love your card. How do you choose an old book? I'm a book lover too so I love the look and suppose you just have to choose and dive in. The ribbon is such a great touch of color to the simple card. Fabulous.
