Through The Viewfinder

Hello all!
So I've been wanting a Kodak Duaflex camera and yesterday was the day to buy one! 
I saw one along with different types of cameras in a booth at an antique store one day... was regretting I didn't buy it, went back yesterday and the one I wanted was the only one left! 
It was just meant to be ;)
photo (16)

So although they don't sell 620 film anymore you can still use these cameras. 
You have to make a box to black out all the lighting and use your normal camera to take a photo though the viewfinder. I will make another post about this along the road when I make a legit box for it!
I was to anxious yesterday and made a ghetto one out of paper. It wasn't the most ideal setup considering I used white paper and there is still light coming through. This is what it looks like before you crop and edit.

Whoever owned this camera took great care of it! Almost too good because the lens isn't dusty enough :P

Here is my favorite after cropping and editing the photo using Picasa 3.

And a few more... because I was obsessed

Originals 06-05-2013

I can't take all the credit for this, Tara Anderson from ThePinkCouch will post photo like this here and there and I totally fell in love with them! (she is also the reason I'm obsessed with milkglass). So thank you Tara for the idea! :)

Well the wraps up today post, until next time!

Layout :: Spring

Hello hello!
Today I have a sort of monochromatic layout to share with you!
Here is the process of the layout!




And a closer look ;)

IMG_4792-001
My original idea for this layout was to use some crepe paper behind the photos but I was feeling that so much. Much happier using the paper and vellum :)

I love the dimension of the wood pieces, I got these butterflies from Michaels and they are made by Recollections. And I don't think I'll ever get tired of my Martha Stewart butterfly punches!

I love this cute printable from the Silhouette store!

These BasicGrey stickers are perfect for adding small dates and titles :) 

Have you ever made a monochromatic page?

Autumn :: Little Black Dress Reveal

Hello hello! Yes it is totally May and I decided to do a Fall layout... I couldn't help it!
When I opened the Miss Maggie LBD kit I totally fell in love with the reds and of course it made me think about the Fall photos I still have to scrap. Here is a process video! And I apologize, some footage was corrupted, I tried everything I can to fix it, but nothing worked.





And a closer look at this page!

IMG_4616-001
This one was so fun to make! I was finally able to use the leaves cut files I have for my Silhouette and I love all the different patterned reds and that red vellum polka dot paper!! 

IMG_4625-001
Sometimes a page just isn't complete without glitter ;)

IMG_4617-001

IMG_4620-001
Love all the layers!!!
That wraps up my Little Black Dress pages for May!
Thanks for stopping by!!!

Resin :: Little Black Dress Reveal

Back with another Little Black Dress page!
This page is sort of a two page spread, it will be to the left of a Project Life spread that I will share with you tomorrow. But for now lets check out the 12x12 page!

IMG_4571-001
I had to scrap this photo of my first resin piece I made! I love the way the pinks and blue go so perfectly! I busted out some old Glimmer Mist and Distress Ink and got busy!

IMG_4573-001
Seriously love those fabric frames and love layering with them!

IMG_4574-001
And the clips! Crazy about those!

IMG_4575-001
I cut the title from one of the papers that came in the kit, stitched them on and love how they turned out!
I will be back with the Project Life part of this page! 
Don't forget to check out the LBD blog for more projects and inspiration with the Miss Maggie kit!
