Stamps Ahead

What do you do? There are many ways to use up left over scraps of paper and embellishments. This notebook (and 5 others) I made for myself and to give away. These were made using products available from Kaszazz and use scraps I had left over from some recent projects. Firstly, used my gel plate and Ranger Distress paints to colour white cardstock.  I loved the way they spread on the gel plate as I applied the paint prior to using brayer.  Another piece of brayered cardstock. Next, after paints were dry I cut to size and I applied texture paste.  Then once the paste was dry I used scraps of paper, stamps and ribbon to finish off the notebooks. More recent notebooks I made are below. I made these notebooks (actually about 20)  for charity fundraising. They are made with Kaisercraft papers and embellishments from my stash. Thank you for looking, Margaret

People often say to me "Where do you get your inspiration?".   Here is a card I created today And here is my inspiration - yes a mug I fell in love with sometime ago.  I immediately thought of the new Kaszazz range Always and Forever.   I have also used stamps from Kaszazz Nostalgic collection that had the Paris theme. Roses have been coloured with Alcohol Ink Markers again from Kaszazz. The Eiffel Tower stamp is from Crafters Companion called Le Francais. I have been to Paris 3 times over the years and it is my sister's favourite city.   I had fun creating this card.  Hope you can see my inspiration on my card.  Thank you for looking. Margaret.
