We live near a beautiful little village where there is a very old book shop. In front of it is a big container full of old books and postcards which one can take for free and with those I made this grid.
This is an assortment of some of the postcards which have been used on both sides, as the old writing in French is just as nice to compliment the grid as well as the front side which has a picture. Very old fashioned, but oh so nice to play around with!
Have a lovely sunday.

Etsy Shop
I opened my Etsy shop about ten days ago to sell A4 size Grid designs (11 1/2 by 8 inchies big) for Home Decor framing. I have sold four already and have three more for sale. Please take a look.
This is my latest and I have one which I will be finishing today.
This is how they can look like in a frame.

A different inchie design
My design is inspired by a lovely inchie card I saw on Pinterest. It was so inspirational.
I love making these little puzzles.

Inchies - in different sizes
Here I have an inchie and a grid project. I like the grid projects because they are not so rigid and give a little expansion to the creative process.
I used wine labels which didn't end up on a card for both of these cards.

These have been scanned, so I didn't use any bulky embellishments.

Wine label grid
I have been playing with wine labels that my son found in a bin where he was working in the 'Cave' near where we live in the South of France. I have been having so much fun with them and it is as if the stamps and colors give such a new dimension on these little canvasses.
This card is a result of the labels that didn't work out, I just put the punch into them.

Pastel colors
Spring is here.... well it isn't yet but it soon will be! The sun is shining today so it makes the cold a little bit more bearable especially if it shines through the windows.
I have one regret with this card and that is that the stamping of the sentiment at the top of the card should not have been upside down.

Inchies - Botanical theme
These was made for a botanical theme a while ago. I used alcohol inks for the background and embossed different stamp images from Butterfly Garden. I love using this technique.
It gives a different look to and use of your stamps.

Rusty hinge and Broken china
I used some new color distress inks on projects that didn't work out. So I make a grid in that case.
I love these colors at the moment.
