Pop n' Cut card ~ Jenni style!!!

 Hi guys~coming off of a busy weekend:):)
This is a pop n' cut card I did for a friend.  I used JBS paper, Prima, Maya Road ( love that camera) and the flair is by The Paper Bakery.

On the inside I put a vintage milk cap on the front of the cup.

remember this~ mail box front and film reel canister

 Hi guys~I hope you remember this fun stuff.  Anyway this is what I did with them~
nothing but coolness~

 I used the mail box front as a frame.  I put my business card in it~the size was perfect!  It will make a cool display:):) 

 Honestly I wish I had bought all of these  ( I walked away from 2 more:(:( )
I do that if I can't think of a plan when I see something!!

 Stenciled my favorite number on the front and put a bunch of old vintage labels in it for safe storage. 

Just vision 6 vintage film reel canisters, all lined up in this vintage dish strainer,
 that's my point "way cool" ~next time, for sure. I will buy all of them!!!
Gives me something to look for:):)
*******************************************************
Have a great Friday!!!

Clear Scraps ~ an acrylic page!


Hi guys~
This is an acrylic page using the XL Deco shape by Clear Scraps.   I used Authentique paper along with S.E.I. (Chalet sundries) to enhance the photos.

 The paper is glued to the acrylic shape, with Zip Dry by Beacon.  All embellishments are hangin' on with 3-in-1 by Beacon.  Do you notice the Texas flag waving at you from Indiana?  They loved having the flags for their "fort"!!!!

The back has a library pocket from The Curtsey Boutique.  I really love the look of those and find myself using them on the backs of layouts instead of journaling on the front.  It gives me more "freedom" to say what's on my mind:):)

Try It Tuesday~primative mirror all spruced up!!!

Hi guys~
remember the old mirror from a few posts back~
remember that box of old flowers ~
remember the old keys I have posted~

 
I took all of those and made this~



All of the little components are from junkin' trips or from friends.  The leaf embellies in each corner are glass and were sent to me by a "scrappy" friend:):).
The frame had an "O" ring on the top, I turned it upside down so the"O" ring was facing down and I attached an old key.
**********************************************

tomorrow Clear Scraps!!!!

An old project re-worked by Sis!!!

Hi guys~
I did this piece 2 years ago for Helmar.  It was one of my last projects, while being a member of the design team.  I made this for my dad (but gave it to my mom) so it would help him remember his great-grandchildren that he didn't get to see very often.

Fast forward to a few weeks ago~Sis was at mom's and saw the mini album and told mom it was to pretty to be sitting on a shelf.

Sis took it and reworked it a bit and framed it.  Mom has been to visit this week and brought it along so I could see it~ get ready to be  "wowed"!! It turned out gorgeous~

She put some of the embellishments on the front of the frame and I loved them that way!! The back mat is covered in burlap.

Just wanted to share with you, you might have the perfect bi-fold mini album that would look awesome framed:):)

gone junkin' friday~whoop!!!!

Hi guys~
I have some really cool stuff to show you. No link up this month, I'm not sure I have the interest for that.  If you are interested in linking up , please voice that to me.:):) 
So let's get to~


First I have something really cool { well to me it is :):)}~

My granddaughter dug the bottle up, on the ranch,.  It was facing label down ( in dirt) so hard to tell what kind it was until today~
Found the one on the L at the antique/junk store today $7.
The one on the R is the one from our ranch.

Look at the "B" font ~same . This is a Buck Brand Beverage bottle by Coca Cola.  I'm going to do more research and try to date it.

 Thought this was cool, from Eastman Kodak lab. I paid $7.

These are little note pads in a leather case, $1 each. They were promo give~a ~ways from the
Tandy Brands Outdoors. These are about 2"x 1" with a little note pad inside.

A cloche ($8) with a birds nest ($5)***love this***


I'm going to use this as a frame ($3) I'll post soon about this.

This a large spool and I loved the star ~ .80 cents.

This is a baby doll's bottle~Evenflo ( $3) You can tell it has been in the ground and I don't think the lid belongs either:):), but it is super adorable.

I thought this was super cool. I haven't had a chance to give it a good cleaning.  I paid $5 for this.  The guy had 3 and I felt like this one was the best:):)
