BAROQUE MINI ALBUM

Happy Monday Friends!
 
Today I finally finished my "labor of love" project.  It's at the top of my list of favorite projects! 
 
The mini album is a "Special Edition Add On" to the "Simply Shabby Chic September Kit" at:
 
~Scraps of Elegance~
 
 
 
I uploaded a video to YouTube showing how to create an antiqued/weathered finish on the gate and dry embossing.
  
 
 
I used various "Prima" paintable cards on the mini pages (included in the add on).  I sprayed the pale green flowers with Moon Shadow Mist from "Lindy's Stamp Gang" (Crows Nest Copper and Incandescent Copper).
 
I added touches of red velvet ribbon to give color and richness.  I didn't add a lot of embellishments on these pages.  I wanted the dry embossing to be the main focus.

Have a great day!
