Today I begin my first project of the year - mine and husband's album. Since it's not very earth friendly, but I love doing it, have decided to print a photo or two for each mini-milestone and put it in an album filled with adorable paper and notes. I have to admit that using embellishments is a challenge for me. I tend to stick to the basic and focus on a specific layout. I like it that way, but maybe I should venture out some more. We'll see. These are the materials I have so far.
So far these are my materials.
Scissors my sister never got back that I've been using for 10 years now, and my glue.
DCWV Paper my friend of 18 years gave me as a Christmas gift. Found these Kakuzoko Bags at Greenbelt 5 and will see what I can do with these on an album.
As I've mentioned, use of embellishments is a challenge so I make use of already made ones and beautiful creations I see. The box is from Simple Joys and beside it is an old calendar of pressed flowers.
I have two pages left here so I'll be using that and then I'll have to make a cover page for the new one.
I look at my previous albums to see what I've done so far, get ideas and weave ideas together so there's continuity in what I do. I also look at others' ideas. Once I've done that, I try not to look again so that what I do is always fresh and from the heart.
I'm going to Mega Mall today and see what other creative materials I can use. Enjoy your Friday as I know I will enjoy mine.
