Tsunami Rose Altered Notebook

Happy Wednesday!

Today I made an Altered Notebook.

I was going to make a mini album because I love all

the papers from this journal but I was having trouble 

getting the album to go together right.

I love these papers so much I decided to do something

that came to me when I was in the Dollar Tree the other day

and saw this notebook... It was like a light came on...

I used digital papers from Tsunami Rose Designs.

I used the Polished Lackluster journal.

The pocket is from the same journal.

The sentiment is from the Digital Sentimental Collection #1

This altered book just came together with all

the gorgeous papers from Daisy's store.

I added lace and pearls and some flowers I had

in my stash. I also had the black butterfly ribbon in my stash.

The blue paper is a die cut that a friend lent me..

I love it... 

I think the best thing about this paper is it can be used

in so many ways...

I went vintage with the lace and pearls and lacy flowers..

but....

I could have went modern and chic with gems and sparkles

and less distressing.

Either way it looks amazing....

So come and check out the store...

Tsunami Rose Designs- Tussy Mussy

I have to tell you when I saw this I had no idea what it meant.

Tussy Mussy.... 

I was very interested in all the pictures on pinterest...

So here is my Tussy Mussy with flowers...

The Tussy Mussy itself is made with kraft paper.

I printed off one of journal pages from Life Abloom on vellum.

I wrapped it around the cone.. 

I added pink pearls and two different laces.

I used the same journal paper printed on shiny paper.

I also printed three other journal pages.

I cut scalloped circles from one, and two other I used

to cut more flowers...

Flowers I cut with my cricut (AP) 

then glued with a hot glue gun.

These were done with shiny paper then inked...

These flowers were also done on shiny paper 

but are cut into scallops.. I fussed then up then

added a brad... they have about 8 layers.

Check out Daisy's store... 

I love love love digital paper and all of her's 

are gorgeous...
