Hey Crafty Friends!
I've made an upcycled magazine holder to match the journal I made for you a few weeks ago using the beautiful "Petticoat Ephemera" Printable Journal Kit from Tsunami Rose Designs.
~~**~~**~~**~~
Hard to believe this is how it started out
~~**~~**~~**~~
I added clear Gesso to the inside and outside of the cardboard
~~**~~**~~**~~
Folk Art acryllic paint was used on the outside edges since my original idea was to use this as a border. Once I placed the printed paper, I really didn't care for it this way - so on to plan "B".
~~**~~**~~**~~
Wrights White Hem Facing (1 3/4") was stained with a mix of Tim Holtz Vintage Photo and Mowed Lawn Distress Stains and attached through the front of the holder with floral binding wire.

Hand made roses were glittered, but then I decided against adding them to the finished product. I'll wait until I can get more of the dark pink rosettes to match the journal.

And here is is with the journal.
