I've always wanted to make an acrylic album, so this weekend I tried my hand at making two of them.
The first album is one that I made for myself to celebrate some great fall pics from this year.
The four 8" x 8" acrylic sheets only cost $4! Just go to your local Home Depot or Lowes and they will even cut the acrylic to the size you want.
I used flowers, gems, rubons, and stamps to decorate the pages. Stazon ink is a must because it is meant for non-porous surfaces.
The holes were cut using my Crop-a-dile. I used Karen Foster Scrapper's Rings to hold the pages together and decorated them with fibers and ribbon.
Here are some views:
This second album has a completely different look. It's fresh and funky and was made to celebrate my friend, Rhi's, birthday!
Happy Birthday, Rhi!!!
This time I used a Krylon paint pen to rub along the outer page edges. It worked really well, as it dried in no time! I used Hambly transparencies, as well.
The lovely Wendy Malichio . tagged me...so I'm about to pass along the lovin';
Here are the instructions for the seven others that I'm going to tag...the seven I choose to tag are:
Theresa Tyree
Debbie McCaffrey
Kelly Blair
Janette Zomer
Rhi Cooksey Quinton
Liz Ness
Michelle Stanzione
Instructions:
1. Link to the person that tagged you and post the rules on your blog.
2. Share 7 random and/or weird facts about yourself (on your blog, we all want to know them).
3. Tag 7 random people at the end of your post and include links to their blogs.
4. Let each person know that they've been tagged by leaving a comment on their blog.
Okay now the seven random facts about ME....
let's see;
1. I wear socks to bed...don't know why...just have to!
2. I must have an orderly wallet, meaning I can't have money sticking out of things
unzipped or unbuckled!
3. I am a huge PROCRASTINATOR...just horrible!
4. I get nervous on trips...trying to get over this!!!
5. My favorite food is seafood...could eat it all of the time!!!
6. I hate beer and wine!!! Most alcohol, for that matter. My drink of choice is a
sombrero (milk and kaluha)
7. Like Wendy, I rush way too much and miss out on life's little pleasures way too
often...have to slow down. Trying really hard to be better at that!
