Peerless Water Color Journal

Peerless Water Color Journal

A long time ago I purchased the Peerless Water  Colors.  The colors come on paper saturated with color.  I wanted a journal with the colors so that it would be easier for me to use.  This is my perfect solution using my Zutter Bind-it-All.  The cover is a page that I found on www.dalebooks.com/dale/nicholson.html.  This site is worth the look as there is a full history of Mr. Chas Nicholson's colors.

A page from inside the journal.  The large piece contains the saturated color and the small dab is a brush stroke of the color.

There are several sites that carry the Peerless Water Colors but there are so many ways to color a stamped image how does one decide.

Stampin Up Awash with Flowers

I found a version of this card on WWW.stampinbetty.wordpress.com and I have a picture on my Pinterest Stampin Up board.
I loved this card so thought that I would try to make it with my color combo.  I just got this stamp set and my first set of Copic markers so had to try them out.  Love both.  The markers are so easy to use which makes it much more fun and decreases the learning curve.  Thanks to Betty for her creativity.  I have her card on my Pinterest account.  Hope you enjoy my version and Betty's as well.  If you have not tried out Copic markers and/or bought this stamp set think about doing so real soon.

Awash with Flowers

I got this idea from sandimaciver.com. Hopefully after I have used my Copic markers and this stamp set I will create my own designs but in the mean time it is quite fun to work with these two products no matter the source.  Like to always give created for the designs that I create.  In this card Whisper White craft ink from Stampin Up was used to stamp the images and then Prismacolor pencils were used for color.  What fun.

I had a lot of fun creating this little book for cataloging my dies. I store the dies in a CD case storage box that I got at Target. The storage box was not my idea but one that I found on this forum-it works great. I wanted a way to flip through a book to find the location of a die. I made a die cut of each die and ran it through my Xyron machine, attached it to a page and noted the sleeve number where it was stored. I made the book with my Bind-it-All with extra pages for my growing die collection. I have only used the Bind-it-All once or twice so I watched a video on YouTube to remind me of the steps and it is so much more simple than I remembered it to be.

Wish that I could remember who had the idea for the CD box. If anyone knows please post it. In the meantime I will look for her name.
