WOW this mini is jammed tight with lots of Marion Smith Design Products, and tons of techniques. Yep - I'm still on a gold kick and wait until you see how these gold accents really bring this album to life. I used the Nirvana Collection, scraps from several digital kits, Junque & Gems, all of Marion's stamps, Marion's Dies, Bloom Impression Tool and some of the resin pieces on this mini.
Over the last few months, I've shared several tutorials that have led to the making of this mini.
A few weeks ago, I shared how I made a Garden Mother's Day card, and used that same technique to create the section hinges. and the pockets on the inside cover.
Here are a few of my favorite spreads
In January I shared with you Wooden Ticket tutorial. I think these little tickets look awesome with your embellishment clusters.
Here is a complete walk through video of this little mini so you can see each page!
If you missed those other posts, I hope you get to take a peek soon.
Hi everyone HAPPY IRS day if you are here in the US (LOL - GRUMBLE GRUMBLE) Here is a post that will help you get over those tax day blues!
I'm sharing with you a simple tutorial for creating these beautiful Shabby Flowers using Marion Smith Designs Rose Petal Die (the one in the center of the photo below). Oh and BTW - the Bloom tools are shipping to retailers now - so exciting I hope you got one. I used embossing powder to recolor the filigree flowers from antique brass to gold and silver.
For my tag I used the Garment District collection and Marion's Junque and Gems for my Flower centers.
I've attached my flower to this tag. I created the tag background during my January Ustream. Can you say ohhhhhhh soooo Shabby?
Here is a process video of me making the flower.
I'm working on a few projects now using these flowers. My next few posts will be using them.
