on the second day of christmas the crafty cow made for me.....

....a photo album for photos of me and mine!

  

i love making albums for friends and family
and laying with textures and colour
this kaisercraft me album gave me a wonderful opportunity to play with 
stampin up's beautiful love letter designer series paper

 each page has been sprayed with gold spritz
 i have made some vintage looking flowers from the scallop circle punch
 i added some bling
did you know you can get plain diamantes and colour them in with marker to get matching bling?


 i am also loving the vintage lace.
it comes in plain vanilla but you can colour it with your dauber



i also love the wide stripey ribbon stampin up has
-it can be a bit daunting and big but it is fab for mini labums like this

this album was made for my kris kringle for a recent meet up of my stampin up team at our illustrious leader's home-michelle dyson
hope my kris kringle likes it!

remember to leave a comment to win some lovely home made treats from me

cheers ears
