living in color

Hi Everyone! Today is my last project designing for Gina's.  I have had a wonderful time with her beautiful chipboard products and working along with the rest of the talented ladies on the team.

I am sharing a "Boo" mini album I created with Gina's Boo Banner Set. 

Gina's banner sets can be used as a banner that you embellish as you choose and hang. OR you can be like me and use it for another purpose. 

I love the corrugated cardboard not only for the banner design but as a mini. I alternated that and some regular cardboard cut in a triangle shape to fill in some pages.

I used the Spiderweb Shape Set on the cover. I painted mine in black acrylic then used Rock Candy Crackle over it. I spread it really thick and the Rock Candy gives it a shimmer look as well as crackle for a truly "spark- tacular" web!

I love adding little tags and pull outs to my minis. I also leave lots of space for photos. I have found I like to use different Spellbinders dies to mark my spots for photos.

On the closure for my album I use a regular clasp ring. then I tore up cheese cloth and misted it in gray- alternating between cheesecloth and ribbon.

With my banner set I also received the letters "Boo" in chipboard. I opted to spread them out and place a letter on page here and there within the album.

Here is a close up so you can see the details. I stamped and inked on the letter "O" and filled it in with a piece of clock pattern paper.

I REALLY love the bottles! I coated them with gesso and stamped with a BoBunny Stamp then covered in crackle. One dried I inked them so you would see the crackle and then added the sticker labels.

Gina sent me that cute accordion style flower. I just had to pleat it and add it to my page! The scary cat was painted and crackled too!
