Scrapbooking is a great way to craft and upcycle your memory keeping. The last memory I wanted to save is of Mother’s Day, so I decided to create this keepsake using a vintage book cover, walnut ink, and Fireworks Shimmery Sprays.
It has been such a long time since I have done a scrapbook layout. I really miss doing them! I used several different Imagine products to create the background for my layout: Creative Medium, Fireworks Shimmery Craft Sprays, Delicata, Brilliance, VersaMagic, and StazOn Pigment Ink. Watch my video below for details on how I created this fun background for my Selfie themed layout.
On Point Glue and Tear It! Tape worked wonders on my die-cut wedding frame construction. Imagine's adhesives are very strong, durable, and easy to work with! Also, I really love using the new Sheer Shimmer Stix in Sparkle to enhance this project and I thought it would be perfect for this wedding frame keepsake that could be used to have your guests sign instead of a guest book.
I love StazOn Pigment ink about as much as I love stamping! Finding ways to maximize the use of this mixed media ink would be a big win in my book! How to go about achieving this goal? A stamped collage, of course! Multiple stamps + multiple StazOn Pigment inks = Happy Stamper!
I am forever on the lookout for inspiring and uplifting quotes. I knew that my Imagine mixed media products would work wonders to make this piece come alive! When i'm working with resin pieces, I always reach for my Fireworks sprays and All-Purpose Ink.
