My First Bind It All Photo Album ~ Easter

This is my very first bind-it-all photo album. I used 1" wires.

The paper is all from DCWV's Spring Stack except the pink strip on the left of the cover (it's Bazzill Bling)

The butterfly is chipboard from DCWV's Blossoms & Butterflies.

"Easter" was cut out with a Cuttlebug alphabet die.

I used Bazzill In-stitchz In the Garden template for the stitching

I used Martha Stewart's Ribbon Threader Punch & Ribbon from M's.

I found the these thin ribbons to work perfectly with this punch.

Ribbon from Michael's. Used Martha Stewart's pop up punch and accented it with a crysal brad

Stamp is from Michael's $1 bin (wood mounted type)

I heat embossed it with Adirondack lettuce embossing powder.

It was my first time using this brand and I love it!

You'll notice that it leaves a nice shiny raised finish whereas the Stampendous brand I've been using leaves a flat dull image (you'll see it used below on the flourishes).

Here I used the Stampendous embossing powder brand. I added stickles (crystal) for a little bit of bling.

The stamp is by Fancy Pants.

This stamp is one of those Studio G clear stamps. I also added stickles (crystal) for some bling.

Isn't this flourish great? It's by Fancy Pants. I can't recall if it's the Fresh MOD or the Pollen Dust set as I have both. I added stickles (crystal) for bling. The flower is a Prima flower with stickles (crysal) and a clear skittle.

Now look at this flourish - aren't they amazing? It's also by Pollen Dust.

Again stickled (crystal) for some bling.

accented this page with tiny buttons as centers of flowers

I used my Fiskars threading water punch as the stem of the flower (cut on bazzill bling paper)

The flower is a Prima flower that came in my grab bag from CafePrima.

In the center are skittles.
