Altered Single Plates Suitcase

                                                          


                                           Hello my dear Blogsisters ,

            

                               The whole month of August I have been so busy.........
                           On the 30 st our niece Ruth married her prince Martijn
                         and I wanted to make them a present with a personal touch .

                                  It took me some time to think of something.....
                                and I hope they will like what I came up with.
           
                       You don't see these very often ........but when I see them in
                    a thriftshop.....I know they're mine and bring them home with me

                                        PLATES SUIT CASES..........!!!!

                               I absolutely love them !!!!! Seeing that great Bow
                                    when they open.......Soooo beautiful......!!!!



                                It has room for 20 records and I left 10
                                       of the compartments empty ,
                              to hold all kind of their own ' ephemera ',
                                 they may like to keep in this suitcase .




                                In stead of old record sleeves I made 10
                                         new cardstock envelopes .
                    Inside each of them I made one other little card and two tags.
                                     I wanted to create a lot of room
                            for photographs , and this is where they can go .

                            

                                 

                         Ruth and Martijn both have 5 personal envelopes
                      starting at both ends and they grow towards eachother .
                          The very first are dedicated to their grandparents ,
                                         followed by their parents ,
                                the babyphoto's of the Bride and Groom.......

                           Growing up to meet eachother, see the Valentine
                                  in the collage and in the middle I made
                                      room for their Wedding pictures.


                                            Hope you enjoy !!!!

                                             For the fronts of the
                             envelopes I created 10 collages with images
                                           I found at the weblogs
                          that I mention in the sidebar of my blog...Freebies...
                        ( I 'm so sorry........I made a mistake some years ago
                            in naming my downloads and now I don't know
                                which image came from what weblog.... : ((
                           But all the Freebie Blogs I visited are mentioned .

                                                           
























With Love,
              Wilma.

Paper on canvas

Wall decoration

Op de site Greenpaper zag ik prachtige voorbeelden van een "Gluebook".
Gewoon het ouderwetse plakboek dat ik vroeger maakte met leuke plaatjes die ik overal uitknipte om ze samen iets te laten voorstellen. Wat je nodig had was een paar tijdschriften, een plakboek, lijm en een schaar.
Als je in de sidebar bij Freebies "Greenpaper" aanklikt kijk je je ogen uit bij de mooiste collages die door
Mary Green zijn gemaakt. Het had op mij de uitwerking dat ik meteen ook aan de slag wilde met materiaal van mijzelf.........hoewel.........ook een beetje van maggie :) vrees ik.......
Maar dat is helemaal toegestaan, dus geen probleem. Het is zó leuk dat je er niet mee kunt stoppen als je tafel éénmaal vol ligt met bergen papiersnippers.
M'n vingers zaten vol plaksel waar natuurlijk ook ongewenste flarden aan bleven zitten....maar ik zat net als vroeger zo'n beetje met m'n tong tussen m'n tanden erg mijn best te doen.

Greenpaper is the site where I found great examples of a "Gluebook".
The oldfashioned gluebook that I made when I was a little girl with images I found in magazines.
All I needed was a gluebook, some magazines, glue and a pair of scissors.
Look in the sidebar at Freebies for Greenpaper and you'll be amazed when you see the beautiful collages made by Mary Green. I could not resist and try myself, with my own paper.....and a bit of Mary I'm afraid........but that's OK,......... for she has this wonderful images she shares as Freebies.
I had so much fun....... sitting with my tongue between my teeth, working between piles of paper on my table, having sticky fingers........and had a hard time to stop.........

Enjoy your weekend !!

With Love,
