BROTHER
Acrylic Scrapbook



5 page acrylic book. Each page is a different size and shape. You can mix and match each page and add them wherever you want. You can see how I decorated each page and the placement. With the subject of "brother" I wanted to change it up a bit and add a bit of interest. In this book there are many photo mats for photos and/or journaling. The star on the second page dangles. The star on the front of the book has a "B" which stands for brother.

The paper is Rusty Pickle. It is rather masculine and fits the theme perfectly. This book can be purchase as a kit from Want 2 Scrap. I have many more books I will be posting that I am making and have made. Stay tuned, it gets interesting!


Have a great day and try something new today. Happy "scrappin".

ME AND MICKEY
A sweet book just waiting for lots of Disney Memories. There are pull tags, double mats, booklets that open up to make even more space for photos. There is also lots of room for you to add special tickets, maps, or embellishments that you get right at the Disney store. I left room for that purpose. You will love working with the laser cut chipboard. It is very nicely detailed and so smooth. Very nice.
This book can be purchased from want2scrap.com. In a few weeks you will be able to buy the whole kit and make one just like it. I know you will love it as much as I did creating it. Just let your mind wander and think how great it was to be a KID for that special day. WOW, I wish I was there now.
I haven't been blogging too much, I have been creating albums for Want 2 Scrap. I just love it and it is stretching my imagination and love for my craft.
Thanks for checking in and try something new today. Happy scrappin'.

"AAAArrrrrrgg"
A skull and crossbones. A definite departure from the ordinary for me. The above book was created for Want 2 Scrap. It is an acrylic book and of course comes very clean and see through. What to do with this subject. I then just let each page create itself. The first thing to do was to dirty it up and make it look old. The mixture of paints did just that. Added a bandanna, eye patch, and outlined no teeth. Every page is painted to match the cover and then the papers were added. Lots of ripping and tearing, inking, scraping and digging. Hopefully I created a pirate book that even "Captain Jack" would like.
The paper was by Rusty Pickle and the whole kit can soon be purchased from the website of Want 2 Scrap. Just click on my favorites on the right and it will lead you right to the site.
Have a wonderful LABOR DAY! Everyone be safe and all our friends in the south around New Orleans, we pray for you and yours. Be safe.
Try something new today and happy "scrappin".

"TIS THE SEASON"
Glad to be back and ready to create lots of scrapbooking art. I needed to take some time for family obligations.
The above Christmas book was created for Scrapbook Village in Kentucky. I will be giving the acrylic class in October. Should be lots of fun. I love teaching my craft to fellow scrapbookers. Very satisfying.
The paper that was used was from Webster's Pages and is rich in Christmas colors of burgundy and green. There are lots of photo mats and a pull tag for even more photos. The book can be displayed all year long and at your fingertips to show when guests come.
Thank you and remember to try something new today. Happy scrappin'.

Hello Fellow Bloggers,

You may have been wondering why I have not posted lately. Well, needless to say I have been extremely busy.
I have been out of town and one of my daughters is moving next week. So I have been helping pack, watch children, or whatever she needs me to do.

I will not be posting until after September 1st. Hopefully all will be under control by then and I will start sharing my art with you again.

I will talk to you in a few weeks.
Until then, try something new today and happy scrappin'.

APPLE of my "eye"
This project was all pleasure. I had pieces of acrylic left from other books and drew the apple and cut it out. It measures 8x7". The book has 4 pages with the edges painted a bright red. The stem is green, of course. The paper I have had for a while and seemed to fit the theme perfectly. I am going to list this book on ebay, and make one for the purchaser just like it, almost. I am going to keep this one as a prototype.
Thanks for stopping by and try something new today.
Happy Scrappin'.
