I saw this on YouTube and had to try it.I watched several videos to get an idea of how to do it and this is the one I liked best.She also gives you a template to make on your cricut.She has it on her website.I wanted to have these done for Earth Day but I didn't get them done.I just punched holes and used ribbon and fibers to bind them.

Here are the ones I made.

Dominoes!

I love playing with dominoes.
All of these were done using alcohol inks and rubber stamps.
How Cool!

I made this one into a wall hanging.
I laid them out in a pattern and stamped them.
I placed them onto a sheet of red sticky tape.
Then covered the whole domino picture with Diamond Glaze.

Journal Page For Today!

My Art Journal pages go from real grungy to real cutsey and anything in between.I guess that means I have no real style of my own,but it also means I do my pages according to how I am feeling that day.
My favorite thing to do is backgrounds.The quote on my page is one of my very favorite quotes.I wish I could follow it and I do try.

Cryptic Coptic Binding Class

I took a Coptic Stitch Binding Class because I have always loved that stitch and wanted to make my own journal with it!

The teacher Rhomany did an excellent job.She made it very easy to learn this stitch.She took something that seemed very complicated and made it simple.
If you are interested in taking her class you can here.

Here is the journal I made,I can't wait to make more.

Color Cubbie For Copics

Each Color Cubbie holds 120 Copic sketch syle markers with 24 markers on each shelf. The shelves of the Color Cubbie are angled so you can easily see the name of each marker (Copic Sketch style) and the angled shelves allow you to pull a marker out from anywhere on the shelf without the other markers falling out.
