Clear Scraps Project Post

Hello and happy Monday! It's Jennifer on the blog today to share a mini album I  created using the Paws Wood Card set.  The Wood Cards have so many options as far as projects go.  For mine, I  documented favorite kitten photos of our cats Hazel and Oliver. 

I  painted my Wood Cards with chalk paint in Patina Blue first.  Chalk paint works wonderful with the birch wood as it dries quickly and looks smooth. I  then used patterned paper and coordinating stickers to adorn the front of my Card, leaving the paws "open" to show the next pages. 

I  had the idea to use acrylic for my pages and decided to use tags from the Acrylic Tag Album. I  cut approximately 1/4 of an inch off the ends so they would fit in my album. I  then tied different colors of seam binding at the end of my tags to add color. 

I  cut my photos down to 3 3/4 x 3 3/4 to fit my pages and then added my embellishments. 

I  like to add extra pages to my albums such as envelopes or bags. Here, I  used a kraft envelope which I  adhered some tulle ribbon around the flap. 

This gives room to add extra photos, journaling or embellishments!  I   don't use my stamps nearly enough so using a fun sentiment was perfect for my pages!
