Now, onto my projects!
For my first project, I created a mini album using the newest SP set,
Bold Birthday Sentiments. I LOVE this set! The sentiments are really so much fun and I always have a hard time finding good birthday sentiments I want to use for my cards. My little one is turning 3 soon and I thought it would be fun to create a mini album that I can place some Instagram pics in later. I really like the look of using cheap coasters and turning them into album covers.
I thought it would be fun to use my Spellbinders to make a frame and then to place real candles inside! I also added in some banners I stamped and cut from the
Stitchery Doo Banners set.
I didn't have any pink bling, so I just used my Copics to alter the color. I think this album is really fun and I can't wait to fill it in. The finished size is 4 x 4, just perfect for those Instagram pictures. And you better believe I'll be adding more stamps inside, too!!!
My second project is a simple card.
I used some spray mist in the background and I used the Birthday Sentiments stamp on Spellbinders die cut. I created the rose using some punches. I created a quick video to show how I made the rose. This is my very first video, so please be gentle! :-) You can find it
HERE or just click below.
