So here is my
inspiration piece for you all to get some lovely ideas from
For this piece I
decided to do something a little different, that I have not done for a while a
bookatrix card with matching stand.
I first started out
by picking my image and printing it out, I then started to colour my image in
using my promarkers, the colours I have used are:
Baby Pink, Dusky
Rose, Oatmeal, Blush, Cocoa and Burnt Umber
Once it was all
coloured in I then cut out my image and put it to one side for later, Now I
needed to make the bookatrix, I did this by using a Glitter Girls bookatrix
embossing board.
I picked my two
pieces of card, and used them on the embossing board to emboss the outline of
the bookatrix pages, once I had done this I then cut them out, now they are
both cut out I decorated the edges with some peel off border stickers after I
rolled the pieces back on themselves so it gave them a curved book look, and
folded on the score lines to make the centre of the bookatrix, I did this with
both pieces of card I then glued them one on top of the other.
Now all this was done
I added my image to the right hand side by gluing it in position, Now I could
concentrate on the left hand side of the bookatrix, so I used some sizzix die
cuts one for the baby rattle and one for the baby bottle, once I had done these
using my Big Shot, I placed them to one side and again used some peel off
stickers one which reads New Baby and the others which read Congratulations and
another that says A Baby Girl, I stuck these into position now they were in
position I then glued the rattle and the bottle into position. (The rattle top
I have left blank for a reason, so that the baby’s weight or d.o.b can be added
along with the time baby was born)
I added some diamantes
onto the die cut rattle and some ribbon to the centre of the bookatrix, and
with the same ribbon I made a bow which I fixed a small chain to and added some
lovely baby charms, the charms I added to this piece are a baby bottle, birth
certificate, dummy, and a pram. The bow with charms I fixed to the ribbon in
the centre of the bookatrix.
Lastly I made a stand
to match the bookatrix, so I used the same pink spotted card which is on the
bookatrix for the stand, I did this by using my stand template to draw around
twice cut both out and then glued them both together I then folded them in half
to make the stand.
So there we have a
beautiful pink bookatrix keepsake card all finished with an added extra of baby
charms,
I hope this piece gives you lots of inspiration and you have alot of
fun with your challenge entry I look forward to seeing them all
