Artistcellar Stencils & GJS Tag Book

Welcome to Day 3 of the Genuinely Jane Studios & Artistcellar Blog Hop~ We have  a full week of a team up between the Genuinely Jane Studios and Artistcellar design team members.

 As part of the celebration, Artistcellar will be giving away a $20 Genuinely Jane Studios gift certificate to one lucky winner, picked from all of the comments left on theArtistcellar.com blog this week on the projects showing Genuinely Jane Studios products –such as this post!  You may comment on each Genuinely Jane Studios post on the Artistcellar blog  once for a chance to win!  You need to check out what the designers from the Genuinely Jane Studios team do each day too~
I decided to use my Tag book from Genuinely Jane Studios.  Instead of using my tags in a book, I am using them as individual gift tags or home decor tags.
The main stencils that I used are from Artistcellar. I used the 6×6 Apparatus & 6×6 Cherry Blossom

Dress Form Banner from GJS

Here is my 3rd project working as a designer for Genuinely Jane Studios.  I decided to take this book apart and use it as a banner.  I still have one of the pieces set aside for another project.

Products that i used on this project:  Tim Holtz embellishments, Graphic 45 pp, stain, canvas corp rope & burlap, and a real zipper.

What I love about the books from Genuinely Jane Studios is that you don’t have to use them as books.  So far I have only used one of the projects as a book.. one was used as a set of coasters and now this is a banner.  What would you do with a dress form book?  I love to hear your ideas too~  Thanks for visiting my page~

Genuinely Jane Studios Project #2

Here is a simple project taking one of the Genuinely Jane Studios 4×4 mini wood books and making them into coasters.  I used some of my favorite brightly colored Martha Stewart paints and gave everything a fun color.  I then added some papers, stickers, and a few simple embellishments.  What a super fun and easy project.  The wooden box with the handle can be found at any Michael’s Craft store that has a wood section.

Do you like this wooden mini album?  What would you do with it?  If you like to alter wood projects check out the Genuinely Jane Studio’s pages for more info, to purchase books, or to see what other fun things the design team has been up to.

 

Genuinely Jane Studios Project #1

I am sure by now you have all heard of Genuinely Jane Studios and that they are back bigger and better!  They have a wonderful new Design Team, Additional New Products, a New Website, and of course tons of new Wood Albums.  I am happy to be working with such a fabulous company.  I not only get to play with wood products but I get to work with an amazing team of designers.

Most of my friends know that my favorite things to work with are altered art projects.. mainly wood.  So when I made this team.. it made my day.  Here is the first project I did. This 6×6 scallop 4 page wood book w/ 2 rings is only $8.98.  I decided to make it for my daughter using her favorite photos from her birthday party.

R U Puzzled Lately?

Have you been puzzled as to where I have been lately?  Well.. with each new year.. I reflect on what I did the year before.  What worked, what I enjoyed, what were the benefits, what could I not live with out.. and so on?  I have tons of decisions to make and tons of pieces to put together or change out.  Which makes this puzzle project perfect for today’s post.

This is one of the newest “wood product” that Hannah’s Home Accents started to carry.   I bet you can think of tons of ways to decorate this puzzle.  I decided to just use a few photos since I really wanted to show off the puzzle pieces and the layers.
