Sparkly projects

Hey hey hey!

Just popping in to bring you a couple of small projects I've been working on lately.

First up, I won the entire Urban Chic collection from the WeRMemory Keepers blog! It was so exciting!

I decided to share the love and create some mini pocket letters for a couple ladies in my Happy Mail group. It was my first mini PL, and it was so fun!


I hope they enjoy these little goodies!

Next up, I have created the cover and title page for my October Daily this year! I had a little bit of a hard time finding an appropriate 6x8 album, but I found this lovely Simple Stories Album on Amazon.


This crepe paper/tulle/glitter ribbon will be a recurring Halloween theme this year. I sewed the crepe paper to the tulle, then I sewed the glitter ribbon & then I hot glued the entire thing to the album.


I cut the numbers from cardstock and just mixed my own black and silver glitter mix & adhered it with hot glue! I will have to be sure to not pack it with my decor that is stored in a hot attic!

I also created my title page. It was a lovely surprise to find the inside of the album was black and white polka dot! I love it!


I can hardly bring myself to use this gorgeous MME paper! I kept it relatively simple so the paper's beauty will shine.


I also am so all about sequins lately, of course I have to have a sequin pocket on my title page. The pocket card is Becky Higgins - another Halloween collection I super love.


I found a super cute pack of Halloween buttons at Tuesday Morning, so that's where the spider & spider web came from in the shaker pocket.

I can't wait to fill up this little album with October fun and make it chunky chunky chunky!

Supplies:

Mini PL - all paper Urban Chic from WeRMemory Keepers

Halloween album - Simple Stories
Glitter Ribbon from Dollar General
Something Wicked paper - My Mind's Eye
Hocus Pocus Card - Becky Higgins Project Life
Shaker sequins & confette - Dollar Tree

Thanks for looking!
