Pockets with the Bird Waltz

Hello, DT Henriëtte here and I'm back with a simple and quick project.
I've made these 3 pockets using the beautiful Bird Waltz papers.



I found a tutorial on how to make these pockets here.
It is very easy to follow.
To decorate the pockets I used papers from the Bird Walz collection.
These papers are so beautiful!





I'm using these pockets to fill with ephemera and send it to penfriends.
But you can also use it in your junk journal.






Thank you for stopping by. Have a wonderful day.

Hugs, Henriette.

Accordion mini book

Hello everyone, Henriëtte here and I have another fun project to share with you today.
It's this coin envelope accordion mini book.


I found a tutorial on you tube on how to make it here.

For the book I used thick chipboard. After I cut all the pieces I decorated the chipboards
with papers from the Eclectic charm collection. 
Before glueing on the papers on the front panels I added two circle die cuts 
with a brad. This is the closure.
All the edges of the booklet are painted gold with Maya paint.





Picture of the backside.


Next I made the coin envelopes. You can buy these or made them yourself as I did.
I made a template and cut out 8 pieces from the Eclectic charm papers, 
assembled the envelopes and cut out half a circle at the top of each envelope.
Then I added a touch of gold on the edges using Maya gold paint.





Using strong adhesive tape I connected all envelopes together and into the booklet.
Only tape in the middle of the envelopes.
This give a fun accordion effect.





I also made eight tags to put in the pockets.
All tags are embellished with Eclectic charm ephemera pieces.




To finish I added a piece of natural twine to close the mini book.




Thanks for visiting the Blue Fern Studios blog.

Christmas Envelope Wallet

Hello, Henriëtte here. On this day before Christmas I'm sharing a project I've made 
with the Christmas Cheer Papers.

I've made a envelope wallet. The idea for this fun project I found here.
You can use it in a junk journal or as snailmail.



I used three large envelopes which I tea dyed.
Before glueing  the panels to the envelopes I stitched around the papers.






The inside has a pocket on the left to put in ephemera pieces and a pocket 
on the right with a large tag.








I used an eyelet and red ribbon to close the wallet.




Thanks so much for stopping by the Blue Fern Studios blog.

We wish you all a very 
Merry Christmas.

Hugs, Henriëtte.

Double Z fold Christmas card

Hi everyone, DT Henriëtte here today sharing a double Z fold card made with the new 
Christmas Cheer collection.





I found the inspiration and a tutorial for this special fold card on 
Kathy Clement's Youtube channel.
I made the cardbase from ivory cardstock and decorated all the panels with the
beautiful Christmas Cheer patterned papers.




On the center panel I made a pocket for a big tag. 
I will write my Christmas wishes on the tag.




I used the ephemera pieces from the collection to decorate the card but also 
two chipboard pieces. 
I embossed the chipboard with oatmeal embossing powder. 
On the chipboard Christmas tree I glued Fir tree seedlings.





The back of the Z fold card is also decorated with the cheerful papers.







I'm very pleased with the result.
This special card will be on it's way soon,  I hope it's recipient likes it too.

Thanks for visiting the Blue Fern Studios blog.

Altered Clipboard with Eclectic Charm

Hello! Today's inspiration is this altered clipboard. I used the new Eclectic Charm 
collection to decorate it.



The clipboard is about 9,5 x 6,5 inches. I bought it at a online office supply store.
First I covered the metal clip with gesso and painted it with a black metallic paint.
I also did this with the chipboard pieces.



I glued on layers of patterned papers to the clipboard and also added painted 
chipboard and ephemera pieces.
All the papers and the clipboard edges are distressed with tea dye distress ink.

  


I also added little pieces of cheesecloth and Blue Fern laces.
These were coffee dyed to give them a vintage look.






I love how it turned out with the deep colors of the Eclectic Charm papers.

Products used:

Eclectic Charm patterned papers, chipboard, 
calling cards and ephemera.
Lace: Blue Fern lace 2.

Thanks for visiting the Blue Fern Studios blog!

Hugs, Henriëtte.
