So my crafting Sunday has turned into a work out who’s fence it is that has blown over at the end of our garden Sunday 😡 Have a lovely week Nina 💕💫

[@NinaRibenaMixedMedia]

That spread is beautiful!!

[@NinaRibenaMixedMedia]

Thank you 💕

[@joannecarroll5504]

Love the flower idea, Nina. I often colour pearls & flower trim etc with alcohol markers, so I don't have to buy every colour in the rainbow; maybe colour just the pearls yellow so they look like daisies?

[@NinaRibenaMixedMedia]

Ooh, now there’s an idea 🤔. I haven’t glued them down yet, so I’ll try it 💕

[@jennygee9849]

those pages turned out lovely Nina...glad you liked the flower idea..I use it in my journals too

[@NinaRibenaMixedMedia]

Thanks so much for suggesting it Jenny. It would never have occurred to me to do that, but its so much less bulky. Perfect 💕

[@madebymartha]

So lovely! You are so good at putting these pages together❤️

[@NinaRibenaMixedMedia]

Aw, thanks so much Martha 💕

[@kathycultice5272]

[@NinaRibenaMixedMedia]

Hi Marcella, thanks so much for subscribing, and for your lovely comment 💕

[@franceswatts4001]

Storm Ciara woke me very early, clattering my roof slates, but happy days - a new video from you was waiting to entertain me 💃💃.. Thank you.

[@NinaRibenaMixedMedia]

I can imagine! Its wet and windy here too. Lets hibernate and craft instead 💕

[@1jmass]

Gorgeous. Your attention to detail is amazing. I love how you added that sweet butterfly that was not quite right for the butterfly page to the love page. He definitely ties them together. You could cut off the legs of the brads and glue it directly to the page rather than having them show on the back, but I am sure you will cover them in some cool way.

[@NinaRibenaMixedMedia]

Thanks so much Jean. It never occurred to me to cut the legs off the brads 💕

[@corinnecurtis5145]

Both pages are gorgeous!

[@NinaRibenaMixedMedia]

So glad you like them 💕

I'm in Canada. I know those little ink pads as cat's eye inks - probably because of its shape. I have a couple of music stamps too because they are very versatile.

Can I ask where you got your little sponges from that you ink your pages with? I love that they are small and flat!

[@NinaRibenaMixedMedia]

I use all kinds of sponges for inking. The wooden one with sponge attached is a Ranger blending tool. The rectangular and square ones are pieces of cut and dry foam, and the triangular ones I use are makeup sponges from the £/$ store. I hope that helps 💕
