Sunday Listings

I was able to get a few things done this week. I'm mostly focused on making Americana items to take for consignments to different shops, but I am pulling out some one-of-a-kind items to offer on eBay. Click the eBay link above to go to my auctions!

Work Tray Wednesday

More Americana in the works!

New Listings for the week

I ended up only getting 3 new items listed on eBay yesterday. I had company so I wasn't able to add everything I wanted. I may list some more items tonight, we'll see how the day goes.

If you saw my Work Tray Wednesday post from last week, I had purchased a bunch of items from Good Will. This is one of them. After giving it a good scrub, sanding and paint job, this little tray is the perfect size for holding your Project Life cards on your desk

Another of my Good Will finds, this hand made candle box lost it's bad stain job and was rejuvenated with paint and a waxing.

Lastly I put up a summer mini album for sale. There is a video in the listing that shows all of the goodies inside. This album will hold up to 50 photos!

This is all for now, but like I said, I may add some more things this evening if I can get to it. Click on the eBay button above to visit my listings.

Mini Book #24

Oh Hellooooo! That's right I'm finally back with another mini book in my Roxi Philips Mini Books, Make it in Minutes. It's been 11 months since the last book and that is way too long! You can check out the video for this book right HERE.

If you didn't see my post from earlier today I uploaded another album, a mixed media piece, make sure to check that one out as well! Thanks for watching!

New Video!

I know! It's been a while!

I dusted off the video camera and got to work creating this framed mixed media piece. You can watch the video HERE.

Guess what else? While I had the camera set up I filled another installment in my mini book series! I'm editing that video now, so you can expect it today or tomorrow.

Work Tray Wednesday

Took a trip to the local good will today. Wait til you see what I create with all of these gems! The best buy? The large Langenberger basket for $3

Sketch N Scrap Card Challenge #48

Our last challenge of the month over at Sketch-N-Scrap is this fun card. Make sure you upload yours to the blog by the end of the month for a chance to win a prize!

I have been inspired lately by youtube videos. When I can't run outside and I'm stuck on my treadmill, I set my ipad up on it to watch videos while I plug away miles. One video that I watched featured watercolor backgrounds on cards. The technique was called Watercolor Smooshing. I used Distress Inks and got a bigger coverage than they did in the video but it was fun to add a unique color pattern to the cards. You'll see more "smooshing" on my cards in the future.
