This project came together quickly as the Anna Griffin For the Boys Die Cuts went seamlessly with Good ol' Sport by Graphic 45. It is so fun to be able to put together samples to promote new stuff. These die cuts are hot off the press! They will be featured on Home Shopping Networks 24 hour craft event on March 24th. Be sure to tune in to see lots of goodies from our crafty leader Beth Kingston as well!
Supply List:
Chip board
Tim Holtz Tissue Tape
When I make chunky books I love to edge the pages with tissue tape to cover up any miss aligning pages and to add a layer of texture.
It would be really easy to replace some of this ephemera with photos from vacations or sporting events, if you are into scrapbooking more than altered art.
I love how the themes from the die cuts match so well with the papers. This little book really has an All American feel. It was super easy to glue everything down with my Creative Station. I can tell I am going to have a deep love affair with this new tool!
I could not resist adding a few more bit and pieces to the back of the project. It is these tiny details that can really elevate your work.
Thanks for tuning in to see what I have been up too! I can tell that working with Xyron is going to be an absolute blast!
Cheers,
Rhea
Awesome!
