Summer Mini Album Maya Road

Can you feel the Summer heat coming from this little mini album, created as a design team project for THE CRAFTY SCRAPPER? All pages were hand stitched, then adhered to the MAYA ROAD Landscape Binder. 
Some machine stitching, and painting can be seen on the cover. For the little MAYA ROAD Canvas portion of the title, I used the Jonathan Mini Alphabet Chipboard Set as a mask and sprayed it with RANGER/TIM HOLTZ Adirondack Color Wash Spray, then later came in with yellow Stickles to fill in the negative space with some sparkle. 

Paper used is the Sketchbook Collection by AMERICAN CRAFTS.

Dear Lizzy Crepe Ruffle Paper by AMERICAN CRAFTS is used throughout the mini album for a fun look. It is easy to use, as it is already pleated.

Each page was masked, using a hand cut piece of chipboard, then sprayed with Radiant Rain. For additional texture, and to add some love, I hand stitched the waves on each page. Don't the  SPELLBINDERS frames make the pictures pop?
Stone-Art by VIVA is easy to use. Just apply the sand paste, add shells and net. Allow to dry for a few hours. The gold specks in "Sand Gold" sparkle as if kissed by the sun!

Summer Play Banner

I created this fun summer banner for The Crafty Scrapper to take to the Great American Scrapbook Convention last week. I used Maya Road chipboard, canvas, mists, tins, and trim! :)
