Carol at your service

My name is Carol MacRill and these are my projects using the May kit.  I had a lot of fun making these.  I hope you enjoy them.

Beach Banner

I used various patterned papers from Webster's Pages Seaside Retreat collection.  I added a lace border, made using a Fiskar's border punch.  I then layered a piece of fish net, Bazzil paper flowers in turquoise mist and daisy, a seashell and some sand.  I adhered the shells with hot glue and the sand with glossy accents.  I used some letter stickers from my stash to spell "beach".  I attached each of the banner pieces together by sewing them to some tan bias tape that I purchased from Wal-Mart.  I tied little pieces of the palm tree ribbon in between the pieces to finish it off.

Sunset Scrapbook Page

I used the die cut paper from Webster's Pages Seaside Retreat collection and layered it on a piece of turquoise card stock.  I drew around the edges with a black sharpie to enhance the die cut.  I layered my photo on a piece of tan cardstock, sewed around the edges and added it to my page.  I then added some Bazzil paper flowers in turquoise mist and daisy.  I topped it off with a seashell for the flower centers. 

 

 

Mini Scrapbook

Using all my leftover papers from Webster's Pages Seaside Retreat collection, I made this mini scrapbook.  Here you can see the front cover and a couple of the pages inside.  On the front cover I added some bling from Zva Creative.  I also used some letter stickers from my stash for the title.  I inked all the edges using Tim Holtz distress ink in Brushed Corduroy.  I outlined some of the pages with a black sharpie to add a little interest.  Added a couple of envelopes (regular card size from Hobby Lobby) and glimmer misted them with Patina glimmer mist.  On one of the envelopes flap I added a Bazzil paper flower and a button from my stash for a closure.  The envelopes are great for holding little keepsakes inside that you don't want to glue down to a page.  I added a few wallet size photos and sewed around some of my pages.  I punched the holes using the crop-o-dile tool and added two binder rings to hold it all together.
