"I'm going to show you how to create a metal cover for a notepad. It's not really metal though - it's an effect achieved with paint and ink." 

Products Used:

Bazzill Basics Cardstock: 

9-960D Kraft 

Spellbinders 

S5-147 Resplendent Rectangles 

EL-017 Industrial M-Bossibilities 

Other Products Used:

Thin chipboard (pieces as large as you want your covers) 

Silver acrylic paint 

Sponges (one to apply the paint and another to sponge ink) 

Brushed Corduroy Distress Ink 

Zutter binding system

Step One:

Take a piece of thin chipboard and emboss it using the Spellbinders Industrial embossing folder. Trim it down to the required size.

Step Two:

Using cheap silver acrylic paint (the cheaper the better for this - the better quality paints will leave too much of a sheen) paint the covers and allow to dry completely. I prefer to apply the paint with a sponge as it leaves a thin coat of paint that dries quickly.

Step Three:

Once the covers are dry, make some scratches in the surface with coarse sandpaper, paying particular attention to the edges of the covers. 

Step Four:

Apply some brown ink to the covers. This will highlight the scratches and give the silver paint a slightly rusted look. 

Step Five:

I found a piece of text from an old book that is an apt title for this notepad that will be my daily 'to do' list notepad. I adhered this torn piece to a scrap of Kraft cardstock, and then die cut the title with one of the Resplendent Rectangle dies. This was then adhered in place to the front cover. The covers are now ready to be made into a book using your preferred binding system.

Today's project is a super cute layout from Sheree.

This little Christmas ornament would be perfect to make with children. It can be made quickly and all you need is the circle die and some paper.

Today we have another fun layout to share.

Today we have a couple more Christmas cards to share with you.

"Although this card is really quite dimensional, it will pack flat for posting. The centre bauble will need some simple tweaking once the card reaches its destination."

"This is a Christmas gatefold card. It's one of the simpler interactive cards that are pretty quick to put together if you need to make a batch of them. The centre circle is adhered to one side of the gate, and the scalloped ring to the other. That's about as hard as it gets!" 

Products Used:

Here we have another masculine themed layout.   

Step One 

Choose your template and die cut along with the centre strip (Each set come with two different flowers to make and one centre strip)

Step Two 

Use a quilling tool to roll the centre strip into a tight ball. Glue the end down and set aside. It will be easier to curl the petal strip if you give each petal a slight crease through the centre.

Step Five

 Fold down each petal, then gently shape each petal to form a dimensional flower. You can then embellish with glitter or ink if desired.

Today we have another card using the new pre cut step card blanks.
