Want no NEED a bargain?

Jean is stocking some fabulous chipboard items at the moment and this one is a real bargain. For £3.50 you get two little chipboard concertina books to decorate in your own style. The inserts come in different colour mine were pink and as you can see there's not a hint of the pink once I'd gessoed it.
I've inked the cover and inserts with distress inks


The star has been covered in the sumptuous glass glitter, it's so so sparkley. When I was finished Gail suggested that I use the frame, that was left after I had popped out the pieces, to make a configuration box. So here's what I came up with.



 Here's a shot of the back of the frame so that you can see how I attached the matchboxes that formed the trays. It does help if your match boxes are slightly bigger than the aperture, unfortunately mine were a bit smaller so a bit tweaking was needed.
So for £3.50 I got TWO concertina books and TWO frames ..... bargain!!!!
What are you waiting for pop over to the shop and bag yourself a bargain before they sell out

Jan:Pretty Lady

Isn't she gorgeous?
She is one of the new Sweet Pea stamps that Jean has got in for you to play with. I have coloured her dress with Distress Inks to tone in with the background paper.

She's definitely going to be one of my favourites will she be yours?
