Grungeboard Series!!!

No, you are not seeing things, it is time for my Grungeboard Series! So, first let me tell you a bit about how this week will work. I will begin with an intro video explaining things and also a video about the basic differences between chipboard, grungeboard and grungepaper. Then, each day will have technique videos. Some days will have just one, some days, two. I will have pictures of all the completed pieces on my blog each day - just in case the video quality doesn't show them well enough. Bear with me in regards to the videos - I am not great at editing and some may not have intros or a goodbye but the goods are there! Any questions about them - please just leave me a comment or send me an e-mail at amyvlovestv@yahoo.com.

I would love it if you all try some of these techniques and leave a comment telling me where to find the pictures. Play along with me!

I will be demoing the techniques on pieces of grungeboard, all pieces are from the Plain shapes Grungeboard pack. These will all be combined into an awesome cover for a mini I am making about my Tim Holtz obsession. I will also be using some of these techniques on the pages of the mini along with Tim Holtz Lost and Found paper stack.

On August 31st, my birthday, I have a gift for you as well. I will share the prepped mini and also share my Blogiversary giveaway. this giveaway will only be for my Blog comments since it is a Blogiversary thing!

I hope you have as much fun with this series as I did making it. My hands are inky, are yours???



Here is the Basics Video as promised! See you tomorrow for some technique videos!

  8. Hi Amy! I thought this first video was really great! Full of information! I can't get any of the grunge paper in my area at all yet, or the plain grunge board. I did manage to track down one package of elements that I've been hoarding for dear life! lol I'm really looking forward to your whole series. Thanks so much for doing it!...Nancy :o)
