Time Capsule

I recently lost my grandmother, so I decided to create an art piece in her honor. I created a time capsule with an old photo of my grandmother with her two twin daughters my mom and my aunt.

I created it from a making tape roll that reminded me of a clock's shape. I covered it with SKW patterned papers on the inside and out and also created the backing of the capsule.
I stamped the little SKW house stamp on white cardstock with archival brown ink. Then I covered the roof with clock's parts to compliment the time capsule theme. I colored the rest of the house with colored pencils. I cut it out and attached it to the capsule with a folded piece of cardstock.

I added felt green trees and my grandmother's photo which I cut.

I created grass by using double sided tape and green flower soft. Then I added embellishments like the picket fence which was sprayed with a copper spray, chipboard bicycle and chipboard birds on the top. I finished the capsule with colorful flowers.

This was fun and sad to create but I'm really happy with the result.

Have fun creating!

Imagination- By Erika Taylor

Hello everyone and welcome to another project blog post using Susan Weckesser productshttp://susiebeestudios.com/susan_k_weckesser_incproducts. Erika Taylor here today to share with you a layout I created using some of my favorite Susan Weckesser papers.

For this layout, I used a lot of distressing which works beautifully with these strong papers. I did a bit of fussy cutting on the whimsical flowers and added some May Arts ribbons and Art Institute Glitter for some texture.

 Here you can really see the sweet flowers and how cute they are for this little princess layout I created of my daughter meeting Ariel for the first time. Loving the pops of color for sure.

The soft palette of the backgrounds on Susan Weckesser papers are perfect for such a feminine layout don't ya think? Now here is the finished layout filled with whimsy and sparkle. Just what a little girl needs for using her imagination.

Thank you so much for stopping by today. I would love to hear your thoughts on the layout, and if you have any questions, I am here to answer them. Thanks again

Until next time
