Thank you for visiting my blog today on Junk Journal day. I really do appreciate it and hope you like the project and will take a look at the video tutorial as well. I just couldn't wait for the charity shops to open and Monday morning I was down my local street where there is are 5 charity shops and one charity vintage shop. I am so lucky to have these amazing shops near me.
I always find some thing from most of the shops but this visit was an exception. I am totally blown away by the vintage haul. I did buy one modern book that had amazing photos from the 1880s - 1900s. I had ideas of making cabinet cards and faux postcards. There was a lovely wedding photo so I decided ot make a folder to hold the photo.
Measurements and Materials
- I made a simple cabinet card
- I cut the picture and aged it using Cinnamon Cider ink and blending brushes
- I also used a sponge dauber to ink around the edges
- I cut some tea stained Basic White card stock to mount the picture on
- I made an equal margin around the top and sides and a bigger margin at the bottom
- I embossed the bottom with a die to give the impression of the photographers mark
- For the wedding photo I made a folder
- To make it seem special I used a lace edge die and an embossing folder
- I aged it again in the same way as before
- The ink blended over the embossed sections made them show up more
- I matted the photo to make it pop more and more authentic looking
Now watch the video tutorial to see how this was made :-)
