Drumford's Save the Turkeys

 Well today I've been somewhat productive :P

I dropped of bags of clothes in the textile container, it'll get washed again and used for charity. After that I picked up my husbands meds and went to the shop to get some sturdy bags and bin bags. 


When I got home, I wrote my blogpost for the Creative Fingers Challenge with my makes on it and added them to the challenges. 

And because I'm so good at procrastinating, instead of decluttering, I went on to print the pages of Drumford's Save the Turkeys and started cutting, inking and glueing :P

So here's my make with the kit:

Drumford's Save the Turkeys


The pages are resized and printed through word again.
Used some bits of left over watercolor paper for the back and added a bit of glitter here and there with the glitter brush markers from Action ( a cheap shop here in the Netherlands) 

I totally love Drumford, I think he's the cutest turkey ever. I bet he cant wait for January 1st to come :P

Thank you for watching

Any 3 Quick Cards or 3x one page cards or 3 x image set or 3 x mini kit!

Our challenge is Always Anything Goes! 😊

💗💗💗

For this challenge I've made a couple of planner pages. 
I love my planner to be chunky, but before getting there, it means it needs loads of makes as well. Usually when I make cards, I put them in a box with the rest of my finished cards, forget about them and then end up giving them to charity.
I'll always have my photo's to look back at, but it's just nice being able to flip through an old planner.

My old Filofax Domino Pink (personal size) got pretty beaten up by now, so thats what I'm using for my pages. I love the Domino planners because of their color and the flexibility of the cover. The fact that you can open and close it to add your pages is a big YES for me as well.

So here are my makes:


I've used Word to print the pages to get the sizes fit my planner.
My planner pages are 17cm x 9.5cm.
I cut a piece of cardstock to that size and print the main background on a 17cm height. The page with 4 x Arella, i've set to 20cm. These two fit on 1 landscape A4.
Ive set my words/quotes to 18cm and the elements to 20cm, both fitting on 1 landscape A4 again. 
There's a tutorial on the LovisDesigns blog on how to do that in word.
Lovis Designs: Microsoft Word to re-size and print

To make it all pop up, I use whatever I have on hand.
So that can be the Amazon karton envelopes or just a sheet of cheap 300gsm watercolor paper that turned out not to be so good for watercoloring. Just whatever I have on hand. For the parts that I want on the forground, as you can see on this one, the  bunny in the right corner, I just double up on the watercolor paper, just cutting to bits of the same size, glue together and stick that to the back of the image (element)

I often use glitter markers, acrylic markers and/or stickles to do some highlights, but unfortunately, my photographic skills are not enoough to make those seen on the images. 

For the other 3 pages, I worked in the same way. Using word to resize and just used the watercolor paper or packaging envelopes for the popping off effect.
