My inspiration for this album was a place to showcase my Succulent plants and to share it with others. That was before the kittens started playing in them. I'm not giving up though, the Succulents are making a come back~
Instructions on putting together this cutie~
· Pattern paper was adhered to the back of the front shaker section.
· The backs and inside pages were
painted with acrylic paint on both sides.
· The back page was also covered with
pattern paper.
· The jar lids were painted with gold
acrylic paint.
· The inside shaker was filled with
buttons, sequins and a stamped succulent image.
· The album was tied together with
twine.
· The 2018 title chipboard piece by Clear Scraps, was
embossed. The chipboard was colored with green ink and then clear
embossing powder added and then heat embossed.
The images and story was added.
More photos of the inside pages.
This is the back side of the album. I stamped the back page with a stamp saying " homemade". A few stamped Succulent images were added for decorations.
