COVER FOR A MINI ALBUM WITH ITEMS FROM AALL & CREATE

Here's a cover for a mini album... I've used both stamps and stencils from Aall & Create.

I started out brayering some acrylic paints from Dina WAkley on a gel plate and put the big and lovely stencil Sunflower power stencil #77 (by Olga Heldwein) on top, when I pulled the print.

I trimmed the paper and made scored and folded the paper into a cover.

Here's a clean look at the stencil.

I used Clean color brush markers from Zig to ink the stamp #151 layered domino border stamp (from Tracy Evans) and then made a partial print, in order to create some more texture to the paper.

Here I've stamped a big clock from the stamp (#143 time flies (from Tracy Evans)) on to parchment paper with Versafine ink onyx black and then poured some clear embossing powder on before I heat set it with a heat gun. I cut it out and put it in the center. I really like the way the pattern shows through the clock.

I also made use of the butterfly from the same big stamp set. I coloured the butterfly in with some pink hues from Spectrum noir alcohol markers.
I also stamped a sentiment from the stamp set #198 Voyager (by Olga Heldwein)... and cut it apart, so I could spread the message all over the cover.

Here you can see that I've done a bit of repetetive stamping in the corner, with a text from stamp set #200 Hope (from Tracy Evans)... The text says Do new things every day.

And here I've repeated the process, with another stamp from stamp set #199 Eclectic stems (by Tracy Evans)... The text says Take each day one step at a time.
