supporting material ... joy

I woke up this morning with three simple layouts for mini books in my head, complete with which papers to use and everything! LOL! So of course I had to get started on them, even though I was supposed to be doing something else today.  This is the first of them that I have managed to complete, the other two are still in my head.

Competitions:

'Punch it' (to use punches): Creative Card Crew and Simon Says Stamp Challenge.

'Metallics': Gingersnap Creations.

             

I think the idea for this came when I was rummaging through my stash and found various of packets of chipboard words. I had a 'thing' of buying them when I first started this hobby and now of course they are just lying there unused ... until now.

Papers: K & Co ~ Margo Flowering Brocade Flat Paper.

I have rounded the edges with my round-it-all and embossed with gold embossing powder.

Cardstock: My Mind's Eye ~ Life Stories.

I cut out the 'supporting material' section of one of the papers, used a Martha Stewart scallop punch along the bottom edge and then embossed with gold embossing powder.

Chipboard word: K & Co ~ Margo: Joy.

Again, I added some gold embossing to the chipboard word.

I've applied gold ink to the edges of the pages to give it a nice aged look.

I then bound it with my bind-it-all and added a piece of gold lace.

Thank you for looking.
