Cut circles in half, form intriguing belly band designs ||

  • Today I split various punched and die-cut circles in half, then I rearrange them into unusual patterns that work great with a junk journal belly band. They’d be super as strong focal points on a journal card or tag as well. And what a great way to use those mixed-media papers that aren’t so great-looking on a large scale, but lend themselves perfectly to these accent pieces!

    I'm mostly a cardmaker but so far I'm seeing techniques that will work for them. Thanks for the inspiration.

      You are so welcome! I'm also a cardmaker and really like to find ways the crafts can intersect. In fact, I'm about to make some cards today with the little "whimsical birds" I posted on Friday. Thank you for watching!

    Hi Ann, I heard about you from Gayle. Yay! Another junk journaled to get new ideas from! Love that you don’t care that something sticks over the edge. So many won’t go through with an idea because it doesn’t “fit”. I love extending the borders!

    Hi Anne! Sent over by Gayle. Love this idea for using circles. Gives things an abstract flair which is different. I like different. 😊 Looking forward to seeing more. Thanks for sharing! Sue 😊❤

    • @annekenlon

    Hi Anne! Gayle sent me. 😊 Love your use of circles in this project and some of my favorite colors too. Looking at the final configurations they do look like treble clefs. Very cool.

  • @teresazuehls783
    @teresazuehls783 Před 7 měsíci

    I really like the look of the circles but i think other shapes would work too. I think this is also a good way to use up mixed media projects yhat didn't turn out. Once you cut them down they usually look much better.

    Hello Ann, great ideas. Question...what is the small gray cutter? What is that thin brownish papers looks like wax paper?

    • @annekenlon
      @annekenlon  Před 4 měsíci

      Thank you so very much! The cutter is just a small desktop paper trimmer. There's not even a brand name on it, actually - I think I got it on Amazon and as you could see, it's very handy for small cuts. The thin paper is called "painter's masking paper" and it's available very inexpensively on rolls of various widths. Check online or wherever you would be house paints. Thanks for watching!

    Love the circles!!! I like the ideas of belly bands. I have done a few, however, everything slides out from under. Is there a trick I am missing? I have been under the weather and I am trying to catch up on my videos.

    • @annekenlon
      @annekenlon  Před 7 měsíci

      Hope you're better soon, Darlene! On the belly bands - I find they work best with a slightly thicker element underneath - like a booklet or an envelope or tag with other elements in it. I'm actually doing another video later this week on a journal card with its own custom-fit belly band and I have confidence that one will help things stay put! Thanks for watching!

  • @connielapp4209
    @connielapp4209 Před 7 měsíci

    Since I know you I can tell you stuff. I’m not liking the symmetry. I think you should go wacky! Also, I notice when you cut the circles, it’s always parallel or perpendicular to the printed material. Try off kilter!

    • @annekenlon
      @annekenlon  Před 7 měsíci

      I will! You always inspire me to try new things - and I am grateful you don't mind having an off-balance friend! haha!
