Queen of Egypt

 Good morning and a very happy Sunday. Today I'm sharing a fun fold card made with the beautiful Cleopatra Queen of Egypt collection from Relatively Thoughtful.

This is such a beautiful collection with the browns and teals.
I love the dimension you can get with this style of card. It really shows off the papers perfectly.
These are the fabulous toppers; they are 'floating' on a piece of acetate.
Sally's collections always contain lots of cut-apart sheets with images and sentiments.
Although the card stands like this, it still folds flat for posting.

The collection can be found here, in both digital and physical form, in A4 and US letter sizes.

A Field Notes Binder for Relatively Thoughtful

 Good morning and a very happy Sunday. I've been playing with the Arden Creative Field Notes collection again and this time I've decorated a 6x8 binder.

This was an inexpensive binder, but it wasn't a very nice design, so I've used this beautiful collection to alter it.
The covers are made from the 12x12 collection, and the spine is covered in Ephemera tape.
I've used the PET tape as an accent on the back cover.
For the inside of the binder, I've used this sunny yellow from the 12x12 solids collection, along with ephemera tape and PET tape.
The postage stamps are another of the ephemera tapes and they fit in here perfectly.
The butterflies are rub-ons, and they blend in seamlessly with the papers.
The words are from the Page Makers Ephemera Pack.
I've made a cluster for the front cover.

Everything is for sale here in the Relatively Thoughtful store.

A Field Notes Birthday Card

 Good morning and a very happy Sunday. Today I'm sharing a birthday card made with the beautiful Field Notes collection by Arden Creative Studio, and on sale at Relatively Thoughtful.

This is such a lovely collection, and perfect for mini albums, as well as cardmaking and scrapbooking.
I've used papers from the 12x12 and 6x8 collections on the front of my 8x8 card.
These gorgeous flowers are from the laser cuts.
And this colourful border is from one of the ephemera rolls. It's the perfect width to fill in the gap from the 8x6 paper.
The picket fence is also a laser cut, and the sentiment is from the ephemera pack.
The butterfly is from the PET tape set and has been coloured with alcohol markers.
And this sentiment is from the ephemera set and has been covered with Glossy Accents.

Everything is available here in the store.
