Silhouette Life Inspiration Box for June 2017

The theme for this month is "Star Spangled Sparkle."

And I am kinda excited for this box.  Rhinestones and glitter HTV.  A cool denim hat and a garden flag.   There is string art and a freezer pop holder.  I have used the rhinestone and HTV techniques in the past, and am looking forward to learning the string art technique.   Will post projects as they are completed.

Project: Folio Album for a Senior at Windsor High School

I have a young friend graduating from Windsor High School this year.  And I wanted to create something special for her to keep all of her HS memories, photos and trinkets in.  This is a work in progress and I will post a video when completed.  

This is a photo folio that will be placed on the inside back cover of her album.  It will provide plenty of room for pictures and a secure place for her notes and cards.  I am keeping it simple so that her photos and trinkets will be the highlight and provide the added interest.

This project can stand on it's own as a handy portable album, or can be added to a larger album.

Paper line is from Scrap 2 It,  a local Scrapbooking store in Ft Collins.  They offer amazing products and classes.  And carry a wide variety of local HS and College specific paper products for crafting.


Project: An Album for a Senior

This is the main album for my friend, who has graduated this year.  I used the BAP tutorial from Paper Phenomenon and paper line  from Scrap 2 It, a local scrapbooking store.  (links provided at the bottom of this post.)  When completed this album will hold well over 200 pictures.

I still need to finish the journaling & photo tags and file folders.  Will post a video when completed.
