Scrapbook - Handmade Album - Alice in Wonderland

Alice in Wonderland Album 

Handmade from scratch - binding and center and pages  - did all the outside binding etc  and then added paper 

Not finished but almost - got a lot done at my  retreat at Younique  Scrapbooking Retreat - so much fun and relaxing 

the cover has the title - if you can see the rabbit is a bit 3d ish with layers - the clock was a die cut out and layered to create a more 3d look  same with the works - so cut about 4 layers and glued them togeterh and added  metal corners 

The Binder consists of  6 pages and 6 inserts - I love the pattern of this album - lots of space 

Inside cover  - the queen is covered in  enamels and there are pocket tags 

front of first page on right is tie down 

the front of first page is a fold out

Stained Glass Class - Havnt done stained glass for a while

 Have not done  in a while and not something I do regularly on my own either .  Getting out into the COVID world is great  and taking a class 

I was a bit over ambitious a bit  more than maybe I should have but I did it  (not finished yet )

chose a pattern outlined it 

Started cutting glass 

 I liked the red but wanted to add something 

painted and fired the end pieces 

started to come together 

Had to refire two of the red pieces as they didnt fit tight enough  ( put it together wrong ) 

did some soldering on one side 

this space resierved for  after firing piece and soldered 

this spot reserved for final glass image 

Sublimation - Multipage print for T-shirt

 Eventually would like to try a full t-shirt print - I have a 15 x 15 press and I made a carboard  support for the t-shirt so that I can print at least the 13 x 19  print on a t-shirt - but I went with something almost  20 " wide and  24" long .   I created using word  for the size I wanted -  then used something called Posterazor  that splits up the  lage image to print on multiple sheets of 8-1/2 x 11  with overlay so you can piece them together - with the sublimation - you wont get lines when you print if matched correctly 

So I printed using various sizes  8-1/2 x 11 and  11 x 17   - was pretty easy for that part - when it came to pressing that was the challenge to manipulate that huge piece of cardboard around as you pressed 

assembly using heat tape - had to do some trimming to make the pattern match but lots of overlay to work with 

 fully assembled (I think 6 sheets ) 

after pressing - was really happy 

Sublimation - Epoxy cup - Ice cube topper

 A group of us were doing a cup exchange and I wanted to try the  lemonade - with ice cube removable topper -  was fun to make 

                            

did the lable and back label sublimation 

Then I tried the  dawn dish soap application with yellow for the back ground 

then I did a coat of resin with some glitter to sparkle it up 

Made the topper using  a car cup mold and set fake ice cubes in the resin and stacked them and put a slice of fake lime  on top 

when dry I dripped a little more resin for  sweat effect 

then when dry put magnets on bottom and on top of cup  so it can be removed 

then sent it off to my exchange partner 

Sublimation - Fun printing and making

 Cant stop - started with prints for cups - learned how to use my cup press   

made masks had lots of fun creating designs 

made socks

these were even more fund designing and learning to us "GIMP" (its free) 

made mugs - I learned to create the royal pet series 

made koozies- these were totally fun to make 

made air fresheners  again fun

made  running shoe socklets 

t-shirts and sweatshirts

signs - words
