Unlike last week, when I showed and talked about several of my completed Altered Book covers and monopolized your computer and reading time, this week is just a peek of what is to come in the near future, as well as
one little rocking horse, this one made using stained glass materials. I'm sure Julia, our fearless leader, will be happy I kept it short and sweet (just like me--tee hee) this week.
Hmmmm - I see you have Traci's new book.....how are you liking it? And that's one adorable rocking horse for your collection!
ReplyDeleteLove that rocking horse, and the book looks interesting too... do I need it? Are we going to be using it? Just thought I would check... I like to have stuff to hand!! LOL
ReplyDeleteLove the rocking horse, thanks for sharing your space

Cute little rocking horse x Have a good week, Hugs May x x x
ReplyDeleteHappy WOYWW to you! Got to ask: how many rocking horses DO you have? This one is cute!
ReplyDeleteBook looks interesting! I put one on my "desk" too! Wondering what that white stuff is? (Too curious for my own good!) RosA#16
ReplyDeleteThe decorative tape is SUPER easy. Using waxed paper or freezer paper, stick on strips of masking tape. Decorate each strip of masking tape with paint/stamps, etc. Pull the tape off the freezer paper and attach to project. It's the "poor girls" version of washi tape which is just too rich for my blood. The decorative tapes are great for journals or holding something lightweight in place but since they've already been stuck once (to the freezer paper), they've lost a touch of their stickiness and won't hold anything substantial....they're strictly for decorative purposes. I'm sure I'll be using it in my AB! The nice thing about making your own is that you control the colors to coordinate with any given project.
ReplyDeleteI love that rocking horse, bet it looks wonderful on a window sill with the light behind it.

ReplyDeleteAw Elizabeth! I love this little horse! So beautiful. Hope your keeping safe in the terrible storms you have had of late. Have a good week! And my Mr Binxz says "Mee-oow" to Bluebeard!

ReplyDeleteSuch a sweet little rocking horse.
ReplyDeleteI love the rocking horse. I started collecting Swedish Dalla Horses a couple years ago. Can only afford one a year they are rather pricey! Have you been to Lindsborg KS yet? Swedish out and out! Let me know what you think about Traci's book. I am thinking about buying one. Thanks for sharing. Vickie #44
ReplyDeletecute rocking horse,am guessing tissue paper for a AB? happy crafting,x
ReplyDeleteLike the look of the book, as well as today's rocking horse. I've cleared the office out of large bull dog clips for myAB, must track some more down, or the proper clamps, but I wanted to make a start so I don't get left too far behind, lol!!
ReplyDeletecute rocking horse. thanks for sharing. Mrs.C. xx
ReplyDeleteI love the latest little horse :-)
ReplyDeleteHugs,

Gorgeous rocking horse ...must be lovely when light is shining through the glass pieces.
ReplyDeleteThe stained glass horse looks very special indeed. Any estimate on the number of rocking horses currently within your home? For me it would be rubber stamps, too many to count and some even I don't know I won!!
ReplyDelete** Kate **
I love the little horse..my sweet gal made me an angel from the same material and she's too good to put away. Is the new book good? The cover is enough to make me swoon!
ReplyDeletegorjuss little horse, well done, how many do you own now lol xx

Ooohh, can't wait to see what you're up to with that frothy white cloth and the book/magazine...intriguing! I like the stained glass rocking horse too!
ReplyDeleteAh - you knew I would love the face on that cover and you put it there especially for me didn't you (not that I have an ego the size of a planet or anything) after I have finished visiting my keyboard is going into safely stashed mode and the glue is coming out....
ReplyDeletethe stained glass window off cuts unscaled beautifully into a very attractive rocking horse.

Oh wow! I've never seen a stained glass rocking horse before. It must look beautiful on a windowsill catching the light :o)I missed getting here last week, so will definitely be checking out that long post later.
ReplyDeleteFiona #103

The doodles book looks great...But i love the look of the table covered in the brown paper! So lovely and tidy and clean. Love the brown paper look!
ReplyDeleteWow! what a cute little rocking horse...Nicely done!
ReplyDeleteI love the little rocking horse!
ReplyDeleteToday is the first day for me in WYOWW land...it's so exciting to visit everyone's desk.
ReplyDeleteI'm starting at the beginning of the list and working my way through so I don't miss anything...Yep I'm nosey like that.
I think you're rocking horse is brilliant. Thank you for sharing...
Have a great crafty week...must dash and check out a few more desks! :D
I love that rocking horse. I bet it looks amazing with the light behind it. Thank you for your visit, Elizabeth and your suggestions on the mica problem. Does that glue work when you want to apply the mica purely to a stamped image for the line art? I am very late visiting this week. I seem to have been playing catch up all week, and not doing very well. Have a good time with your altered books. xx Maggie #8
ReplyDeleteHi your rocking horse is fab, thank you for your visit hope your computr is behaving to day

Such a cut rocking horse! Haven't been able to go book hunting yet. Too busy last Tuesday throught Thursday with granddaughter trying to have her first baby. Finally came on Thursday, much of my time spent at hospital. But all is well and a precious girl added to family.
