"Hi everyone, Liesbeth here. Sadly it has come to my final post as a PaperArtsy Guest Designer. The time has sure flown by".
Yesterday
I promised to show what I made from a piece of beautiful painted paper, a left
over from the wall hanging. Now by magic it's a small notebook .. a perfect gift don't you think!
Here's what I did - I stamped the
shirt from LynnePerrella Collection 029 onto the left over Smoothy Heavy Weight White Stamping Card and also on a
piece of white Shrink Plastic. For both I used Black StazOn Ink to stamp with, then I cut them out.
I
punched a hole at the top of the Shrink Plastic shirt and shrinked it with the
heat tool, added a bit of colour with some Archival Inks and FrescoFinish Paint. For the cover and back of the notebook, I did the same
"Peeled Paint technique" using petroleum gelly, as I did yesterday for the
wall hanging. To make the pages, I stamped the shirt sevaral times onto a thin
piece of printer paper, using light inks. I used Adirondack Cloudy Blue, Aqua
and Sandal, I cut them out and sponged them a bit with Sandal. Next I
punched a hole, added a swivel clasp and a tiny key as shown. I
finished the notebook with a bit of Treasure Gold
(Sapphire and Brass).
Some
details ...and the finished notebook!
I
really enjoyed being one of the Guest Designers for PaperArtsy, thanks a lot
Leandra, it's been a very huge privilege and a big adventure to use your

Liesbeth, this is a fab way to finish off - can't believe your stint is over already, it's flown by! Thanks for sharing some fantastic projects.
This is such a charming and original project, Liesbeth! I have really enjoyed your projects. You have such a vibrant style. And who will ever forget the bonfire sagas!

Another great project Liesbeth. Funny that Lucy should mention bonfires because I thought that this was another fired tin at first. I have really enjoyed your projects. X
FABULOUS!
Love it!!! xxx
What a brilliant way to use that shirt stamp! I have thoroughly enjoyed your lovely projects, Liesbeth. I've been playing with peeled paint today and you're right - it works brilliantly with PaperArtsy Fresco Finish Paints! I hoped to link up my project soon. Julie Ann xxx
