Hey everyone! I'm back with this mini album made from small paper bags, featuring the Prima Marketing Golden Coast 8 X 8 Essentials Bundle from FotoBella.com. It's been years since I made one, but this beautiful, beachy collection was perfect to highlight my last trip to California. Looking forward to going back in a couple of months!
The sand was created with the Dusty jar from the Prima Marketing Rust Paste Camouflage Set.
I just love the texture, and added some small shells among the flowers and chipboard pieces!
All of the paper edges were inked with Vintage Photo Distress Ink, including one of the Journaling Notecards peeking out of the pocket on the left.
The wood planks were stamped with the Prima Marketing Old Town Stamp using Archival Ink (Potting Soil).
I didn't mind trimming down the papers from the 8 X 8 Paper Pad to fit this 6" X 6" album.
Thanks for looking, and shop FotoBella.com to get the Prima Marketing Golden Coast 8 X 8 Essentials Bundle!

Then I added the ship's wheel and some screws made from paper clay using the Finnabair Mechanica Mould. They started out with a coat of Dylusions Paint (Ground Coffee), followed by Art Alchemy Paints (Rustic Brown and Magical Pond), and finished with touches of Prima Marketing Patina Effect Paste (Blue).
Some of the flowers and leaves got the golden touch with (Vintage Gold) Prima Marketing Wax.

What a clever use for those paper bags, beautifully constructed and embellished. What amazing photographs, i'd be daydreaming every time I took a glance at your trip to California.
