New albums :)

Hi there! Just wanted to share a couple of my most recently created albums for ebay. 
 The first is a rustic looking paper bag album done with the Restoration collection by Crate Paper. I made most of the flowers in ths album from a few of my daughters old shirts :) By dyeing them with distress ink and glimmer mists, I turned white to just right! I'm also growing an obsession with old buttons...just love 'em :)
 
 
 
The second album is a tiny 4x4.5 chipboard album. 
 Since my albums are usually so chunky, I made this one with leftover pages from a couple of Maya Road binder albums. I used the last of the last of my 5 & Dime collection from October Afternoon. I LOVE October Afternoon....the patterns on their papers just always seem to be perfectly sized, shaped, and placed.
 I made every flower in this album too. 
 
 I cut the tiny flowers from OA paper misted them to get them just a little bit wet, then made them rounded by pushing on the front or back of each petal with the end of a paint brush over a mouse pad. I thought they were just right without centers :)
 
And there you have it- THIS WEEKS LISTINGS :) Thanks for stopping by!
