Baby Boy Mini Album

Hi

This is a mini album I made for a good friend who is going to have her first baby. She expects to have him during the next week. It is made to fit 4"x6" photos, one per page to make it easier for her, I already gave it to her so now she knows what photos she needs to take of Sebastian once he born.

I used Fancy Pants Baby Steps Chipboard Set which is perfect for gifts. It includes the box, the accordion mini album 8"x8" and chipboard shapes. Patterned papers are from Paper Salon Bliss Boy Collection, Spanish Memories Bebé Niño Inocente, Fancy Pants Sweet Pea Noah. Cardstock: Bazzill Basics; Ink: Tsukineko; Rub-ons: Spanish Memories Bebé and K&Co; Stamp: Autumn Leaves; Paint: Delta and Stickles; Tools: Nestabilities, Martha Stewart Border Punch; Ribbon: Unknown; Alphabets: Heidi Swapp and American Crafts; Other: Mod Podge, Scallop scissor and Chalk Coloring Pencils.

Thanks for looking and have a nice day!

Tutorial: Puffy Velvet Marker and Coloring Pencils

Hi

This is a quick tutorial on how to use the Puffy Velvet Markers. Hopefully this will give you a better idea on how to use them and how they will look at the end.

You can paint anything you want, but I decided to used a stamped image.

1. Stamp the desired image. I use Black Stazon, but you can use your favorite ink.


2. Paint the leaf with a coloring pencil.


3. Apply the puffy velvet ink to the image. Remember the more ink you apply, the more puffy effect you will obtain.


4. Let the ink dry.

5. Use a heat gun to make the ink puff. Just pass the heat over the ink, moving it slowly from one side to other. Don't over heat it!

6. Let the puff get cold, don't touch it while it is hot or you will damege the effect.

7. Your image is ready!


You can see how cool this turns out. The texture is amazing, you can see it and you can feel it!
