Two Minis

Hello Roadies,

I have two mini albums to share with you today. 

The first is a little mini art journal album.  I used the interior pages of a binder album to create the cover.  I love the little tabs sticking off the side.  I covered these pages with old book texts and distressed them.  Next i added the adorable Noah acrylic letters on top of the book pages. 

*NOTE: So your acrylic pieces don't get scratched, Maya Road protects these pieces with a plastic coating.  Make sure you peel off this plastic coating before using them in your projects.

I used a page from the Coffee Cup Coaster Album and covered it with pattern paper.  Outlining it with a brown pen & popping it up with Helmar's Pop dots help make it the focus.  The interior has watercolor paper so it can stand up to anything i choose to do on the interior...mists, paints, etc.

This bee hive album is so adorable.  I decided to capture the roles each of us take in our house.  The front is actually the back of the album.  I just love those honeycomb pieces.  I coated the cover with gesso, Hydrangea Blue Mist, and a little bit of glitter.  I love the way gesso makes the mist really pop.

Here are some of the interior pages.

Lots of mists & gesso & paints through out the mini.  Love how well the kraft envelopes & tags complement the pages.  I hope you find some inspiration in these pages.

Love

Ronda
