Scrapping with out pictures

March 2013 074

Hey there bloggers Rita Barakat here with a Clear Scraps Acrylic mini
the Basket Brag Bag! Easter is right around the corner but it is cold!
I see no signs of spring brrr!
This lovely basket is about 9 inches high, if you include the handle and

easily fits 4×4 or smaller pictures. I made this one for Easter
so my acrylic album doesn't have any pictures yet!

I know most people scrap with the picture in mind but I find that times
when
I take lots of picutres- like holidays and birthdays I don't get around to
scrapping them.
This way the work is done ahead of time and I can slide those
pics right into place after the holiday.

Here is a close up of a flower I colored to match the pretty papers.

The edges are showing, edged with gesso –
which I seem to be putting on everything these days!

I used a distressing tool for the rough edges.
If you dont have one you can use a sharp scissors – but be careful!

I like that you can see thorugh the acrylic
where the paper has been torn back (on the top).

I love using foam squares to pop up some of the designs.

The back of the book; or the front depending on what I decide.

Do you ever scrap without the pictures?

Happy Scrapping!
