A Great Match!

I attended my annual work party last night and our theme was the "Roaring 20's"..what a GREAT time!! How fun is it to dress up in period costumes and step back in time! The music, decor, everything was perfect. I knew I would be taking LOTS of pictures to scrap, and I knew right away what paper I'd be using! My favorite pp, Graphic 45!! They'd make a great pair!

I picniked this photo to make it look more vintage and began to scrap. This is what I came up with:

 

And a few close ups:
  
I used UTEE to make a few embellies..



  

  

Well I've got lots of pictures left to do!! If you're looking for any of the G45 check out the store at Pages in Time. 
Till next time...Happy Scrappin!!

Bo Bunny Clearly Mixed Up Flourish Album





I have always wanted to do a clear acrylic album. They really are adorable and you can do so many creative things with them. Before I started I poured over one of our DT Members Blog...Irene Tan (Scrapperlicious). She has the most AMAZING techniques that you can use for acrylic albums. I tried painting with crackle paint and glossy accents..but I must of did something wrong, cause the next day it all fell off...lol! Oh well..trial and error I say. It was then I decided to change my direction..and make something for my daughter to have.

I grabbed some really cute Bo Bunny 'Forever Friends' Cardstock Stickers from the Pages in Time Store, and worked from that. The page that was ruined I thought I'd have to throw, but I covered it with some BG Bittersweet pp and began to put my first acrylic album together..here is the result.

 
  
  
  
 

Now I'm not gonna lie..this was a tedious project at first, but once I learned what type of glue, rubons etc..to use..it went alot smoother!
