Now on to what I created…

It's been awhile since I've created a clear mini album. Acrylic and Clear Plastic Sheets are one of my favorite materials to create with. Here I created a circle mini album using clear plastic sheets from AccuCut Craft, Sizzix Circle #3 die, Tim Holtz M & S Mini Bird & Cage Set and Spellbinders Classic Scalloped Circles Small die. I just love Prima's Sweet Fairy collection and knew it was perfect for this mini. On the cover I incorporated the gorgeous new spray SP1 - 151, a beautiful pink rose R60-0, my favorite small white flowers S10 -15, and a small white Gardenia curly petal GP2-1 for the bird's feather. I also added a beautiful trim with pearls from a gift I received from Karla. On the binding ring I added some gorgeous creme tulle that I just love from a gift I received from Brandy and a beautiful Prima bling charm. I just love creating mini albums.




Next up is Cindy. I’m sure she has something AMAZING to share with you!
