I am on a mission to use up some of my huge collection of papers, and so I have now finished the second little mini book I have been working on this month.
Like usual I have used inks, background stamping, embossing and die cuts.
Most of the stamps used were designed by Gabrielle Polacco.
And here the final two pages, using exactly the same techniques once more, just with different colours.
Most of the dies used are from the Tim Holtz wild flower thinlits set.
And one final tag, to fit in the side pocket between two of the pages:
I embellished the tag with a couple of little home made Tyvek beads and that was pretty much it.
Well, I am glad my little books are finished now, - high time for some different kind of projects and art work, but more of thast in a few days to come. Thank you for your visit like always!
