Gothic Stories Paper Collection

I am a lover of all things goth. As an original 80s Goth that isn't really surprising. The love of Goth has never left me.

I have for a long time been looking for Goth Scrapbook Papers. Honestly they are just about impossible to get. The closest I have gotten is from Magik Graphics. No complaints because Sue's stuff is amazing.

Imagine my delight when I came across this paper collection on etsy

No question about it I just ordered it. Well I am delighted to say it came today. I say paper collection its more like cardstock. The images are exactly what I want. I now need to think of what I'm going to do with them.

As well as the 12 x 12 Papers in the pack there was a sheet of rice paper. I know exactly what I am going to do with that it's going to be the base for a Goth Canvas.

In the meantime

Happy Crafting

Christmas Wreath Decoration.

I made this Wreath using files from a Carnation crafts Christmas usb. It was really easy to make. It comes with all of the mats and layers you need as well as all of the decoupage. There are 3 mat layers. I cut two base layers in black, a middle layer in gold and the top layer in black. I cut two base layers because I have put a ribbon loop at the top so you can hang the finished Wreath up. I simply held the ribbon in place with a piece of tape and then sandwiched it between the two black base layers. Then I added the gold layer and finally the black top layer. Next was the decoupage. I printed the decoupage onto 128gsm Navigator paper. This is my go to paper. The print quality is exellent. I get mine in bulk from amazon but if you have a Wilko nearby they sell it as well. I glued the base layer in place flat. Then I added the decoupage pieces using silicone glue. I shaped the pieces to give a better effect by just gently moulding the pieces with my fingers. The sentiment was cut from ...

Christmas Album Page 2

Today I have made page 2 of my Classic Christmas Mini Album. Page 2 is a lovely waterfal page. Again I cut the base page to 7.5x7.5 ins. The waterfall pages are 6.5 ins wide x 5ins high. Then scored at .5 of an inch on the short side. The closure mechanism is 2 ins wide and 6ins long. I then scored at .5 of an inch on the long side. I added glue to this small flap and glued the strip centrally at the bottom of the page. Then I added the main page mat which I cut at 7.25x7.25 ins. The waterfall mats all measure 6.25x4.25ins and we're glued in place. Next I added glue to the flaps on the waterfall pages. Be carefully to line them up properly. I added a tiny topper at the top of the closure. I added a magnet to the back of the topper and the front of the top waterfall page. Remember to do this before you add your decorative paper. If you would like to see a video of how I made this page here is the link Page 2 I have also made a short video showing how I add pages to my albums which...
