iPhoneography Mini Book & photo update

I purchased one of Amy's kits for this workshop, but I wanted to try to make my own mixed paper mini book too =)

My book measures 6 x 6 inches and I plan on filling it with my favorite iPhone photos. 

I used white DMC thread for a portion of the title and navy and white baker's twine for the binding. "iPhone" is stamped with Studio Calico's "Noah Alphabet" and heat embossed with AC's Metallic Blue embossing powder. I also used Studio Calico's "Doilies" stamps with VersaMark Dazzle Ink.

I love my iPhone and all the fun photo apps out there. Some of my favorite photo apps are ShakeItPhoto, Hipstamatic, IncrediBooth. This book will be a perfect place to keep all those fun and a lot of times random photos. 

And...

Here are some better photos of the layout I did with the stitched title.

Happy Saturday everyone!

gettin' stitchy with it.

Here's a layout where I used the stitching technique shown in Amy's online workshop.

This was a really fun technique and I'm sure I'll be stitching up a storm on other projects.

It was gloomy all day today, so the lighting wasn't very good. I'll be sure to upload better pictures to the workshop's flickr group =)

Hi my name is Diana...

and I'm addicted to making washi tape.

Homemade Washi Tape!

Here are some of the homemade washi tapes that I made for Amy Tan's online class. I don't have any colored sharpies, so I used my "Souffle" gel pens (pictured below). They actually gave a cool sheen to my homemade tape. (of course you can't tell from the pictures because I'm impatient and took them with my iPhone)

I like to doodle, so this was a lot of fun.

Thanks for looking =)
