Morning all...okay today i have an altered folder for you...do you remember this...
I bought it at Paperchase...love that shop...i am going to use it for my fav photos...the bigger ones on the left will hold the photos and the smaller inserts on the right will hold journaling and pretty things!!! lol...
I finally got round to altering the front...unfortunately it is a classic case of what i had in my mind..didn't quite add up to what actually happened to the front of the folder...
I get lots of emails from people saying that it is nice to see when i am not happy with things or things go wrong...lol...not sure why but anyway...here is the classic 'gone wrong'..
There are several things that i like about this...i love the overall effect of dimension...as you can see here in the next photo...
it has lots of layers on it...i lurvvvvvvvvve layers!!!
I love the individual components the ...the buttons the flowers etc...
I love all the glitter...
and i am in love with the see through buttons that you can see on the white flowers...i sooooo need to get some more of those...
But i backed myself into a corner...i wanted the whole thing to be covered...but after i completed the middle section i couldn't add anything else without it seeming out of place...or just plain wrong...so it is one of those things that are done...but hey it is okay for things to not work out the way you want them to...
I gave myself permission along time ago to make mistakes and not to have everything perfect...for a control freak like me that is huge!!!!! I may even sit down today and alter it some more!!!! if i do i will post the changes!...see you wednesday x

I just love this one can't see what's wrong with it. But I understand your feelings when you have something else in mind and it turns out something else.
Looks great! The kraft color is perfect to add more ink! Channel your inner Tim! I'd keep it simple because of the elegant middle and just ink in a few colors maybe water splat it and then paper towel it off and that should do the trick! But it's great as is!!
Whats not to like? I think its divine.I'd be chuffed to bits if I made something like that.xx
