Paper Bag Mini: MARIPOSA

Hello Crafty Friends!

Here is my latest creation!  It's a paper bag mini album using red "Celebrate It" paper bags from Michael's.  I used DCWV's "MARIPOSA" paper stack.  I followed the tutorial by Kathy from Paper Phenomenon, *with my own adjustments*.  I will also be posting a video shortly.  Enjoy!



I embellished the cover with flowers from I Am Roses (altered with "Gold" Glimmer Mist by Tattered Angels).  The charms are from Prima (Marion Smith's "Vintage Trinkets").  The sentiment is a stamp by My Creative Time (You Had Me At Chocolate), with an overlay of "Gold" Glimmer Mist, stamped onto a die cut from My Creative Time (Fancy Frame Stamp and Die Set). I used some "Say It In Pearls" by Prima.  The book is bound using sheer green ribbon.

Now let's take a look inside:

I made this album for my sister & brother-in-law's 12th wedding anniversary.  So in addition, I also made a matching card:


Gave them the matching tag that I made for May:

May Tag 2012: MARIPOSA

Hello Crafty Friends!

Happy National Scrapbooking Day!
I hope everyone had a chance to do something creative today.
I did.  I worked on two projects.  I am almost finished with a mini album that I am working on for my sister.  And, I made my "May" tag for 2012.







I used DCWV's "Mariposa" paper.  I LOVE this stack!
And, I used "Vintage Photo" Distress ink for the edges.
I also used Glossy Accents on the small butterflies.

This is also my May submission to
So, what do ya think?

Thanks for stopping by! :-)
