A Star in the Making

A few posts ago, I mentioned a crafty project I was working on while scrapping on New Year's Day. Well, after a little delay, here it is...my first star album!



It's an album I made for my friend Jewel of some of the pics we took while I was in Chicago. She let me stay with her and took me around to see all the sites, so this is a little "thank you" gift.



Please don't look too closely at me inhaling consuming that Garrett's popcorn, lol
I have "flashbacks" everyttime I look at that pic, lol




Email me if you have any questions about any of the papers/embellies you see. I did use the Jolee's Boutique stickers through out the book, along with some papers and stickers I picked up there. Because of the album's size, I used smaller pics. Most of them were 2x3, but I made some of them 3x4 to give the album "pages" variety and to cover the stars/circle paper. I loved the print because it matched my color scheme, but once I got it in the book...not so much. The photo sizes solved that problem! I learned how to make this album at an SDV in VA, but this was the first time I applied what I learned there to a personal project! I like that its different than a traditional album. I love how it turned out so I'll definitely be using this one again soon! Thanks for stopping by and that's all she wrote!
