My first ever fat book page swap. I loved making these and have finished way before the deadline. (Some would say I should get out more)







My first ever fat book pages using MM jounaling pad and scrummy flocked stickers I just couldn't resist on my last shopping trip.








Childrens songs was the theme chosen by material girl as she and her son have lots of fun singing together. The song is 1,2,3,4,5 once I caught a fish alive. It is quite interactive this one as the fish are help in with the clip and be removed to count with if they wish.




Transport theme for Jennyin. This is the one I found most difficult and I am not really happy with how it has turned out. Might have to go and do another one.

Cosmic theme chunky page for Jo. The background is stickles blended with my fingertips (Very Messy) with beaded embellishments and pearlised paint for added uummph.













Any excuse to use my BIA. Although this is the first time I have tried anything this small. Totally inspired by Voodoo Vixen I must add (Thanks Annette). Tuppences theme is faries if you hadn't noticed.






These are the pieces I did for myself, as you can probably tell my theme is butterflies. The background is sleleton leaf stickers, they are so fine they look like Patterned paper, I really need to find some more of these. I dreww the butterfly on acetate and coloured it in with peel off pens then used a similar colour glitter glue for the sparkle. I scored the body to bend up the wing to add some dimension.




Then I did the purple theme. As purple is my favourite colour I really enjoyed doing this one. I made the background paper with a few diffferent coloured ink pads and just blended then together. I used glossy accents on the shapes to give then some shine and in the frame I poured in some seed beads and set them with dimension magic.







The last one I did was for Sixophone, the theme was my house, my mess, now as its always a mess I didnt know where to start. Anyway I decided on my craft desk as the topic as this is always a mess and if you listen closely you will hear me shouting, now where have my scissors gone. I used a wood effect patterned paper for the desk top. The paint tube is a real tube of paint, almost empty so it would lie quite flat.

  2. It is different to a CJ in that we each did 1 page for everyone else in their chosen theme and send them to the host of the swap, no waiting month for completion, the whole thing was done in a few weeks, then when all my pages come home I will make then into a little book.
