Mini Album and a Layout

Hiya everyone.  Just a quick post today as I have a tonne of things to get done and just didn't want to leave it another day without posting as the weeks just fly by.

First up is a quick little mini I made for my youngest daughter.  It will be her 13th birthday soon and I just wanted her to have a special little album to put those pics in when her big day comes round.  I used the Bo Bunny Gabrielle collection and it is just loaded with all sorts of embellies and techniques.  I have made sure that there are plenty of pockets and tags for her to add whatever she wishes.
















Next up is a layout of my favourite shoes!  Yes, you will wonder why these are my favs, and NO I have not lost it.  You see I have travelled quite a bit and lets just say that I am a rather adventurous person.  I have seen some pretty amazing things in my travels and if it were not for these shoes I don't think it would have been possible. 



To create this layout I used my Cricut Imagine to print the main page.  This was originally white card stock and once printed on the imagine it was just off white with the pale blue ruled lines.  I then used my trusty ol' distress ink pads in Walnut stain, brushed corduroy and black soot to just swipe across the page creating this rather cool weathered background..  I have used a multitude of stamps, die cuts and rubons as well as the 7 Gypsies fabric tape and Tim Holtz film strip which has been attached using Zutter rivets.
Well that's it for today better run and collect the girls from school.
Thanx for stopping by
Ciao for now X
