Special Book for Eli - Part 1

 It's so sad when one of our beloved pets pass and I really like to give a special book for some memories that my dear friends can have close to their chair and be able to enjoy while they are still in mourning. It then is a nice memory later too of their sweet babies.

Note - The blog posts are going to go in book order not video order just FYI.

Sizes and bits used will be after each page - information in the parentheses is what page the paper came from if not from that page and the products used will be at the bottom.

Also, I did paper saving in this book as I wasn't sure how far the kit would go as well as the pink page I was trying not to use since Eli is a boy. I will note where I paper saved in the info below the picture.

Paper Pumpkin Magic! - 3 layouts and 6 cards

  I received my paper pumpkin kit for July and wanted to create a few layouts and some of the cards. Video shows the cards and layouts - creating one 12X12 layout during the video for Nancy. You Tube Video: Cards: Daisy in Old Olive card  Flower in Melon Mambo card Poppies in Calypso Coral card Card details: Card base is from CTMH July Paper Pumpkin kit Inks - Artichoke, Rosy and Papaya Cuts: Card base from the kit cut in half then the floral front was cut to 3 3/4 X 4 3/4 the solid pattern was cut to 4 X 5 1/4 (cutting out 3 1/2 X 4 3/4 out of the center) Process: I added the corresponding ink to the card base to soften it and then I added the solid pattern and the floral pattern. I inked the edges of the floral and solid pieces from the kit then adhered them to the card base. I added strip pop tape to the frame and the flower piece then added it to the card. Finished with the included sequins. 12X12 Layout: Calypso Coral card 12X12 Layout bits: Kraft (2) 12X12, (2) 4 1/...
