Vintage Treasures Book Cover


Today you are going to be really surprised at my project that i created to share i am sure.... when i used to teach classes our favorite class was getting messy with inks and sprays and lots of embossing powders.  Sooooo... i decided to channel my inner Seth Apter and make this journal cover for a book i am doing with some vintage family photos.  It's such a perfect way to use these dies.  
My die is called Cannetille Rectangle and is from the brand new Vintage Treasures dies that were just released.  I originally made this in soft shades of pink for the packaging samples so i thought doing a total 180 would give all you embossing gals something fun to do with them.  What a difference layers of ink and aged embossing powders can make to a cut out die.  Imagine using thin chipboard too.  How fun would that be to try....


The details in this die set are so pretty and the tiny bits of vintage gold embossing powder from Stampendous really just cling on to the right places and make this look so old.  The spray i used is from Lindy's stamp gang and the neat part of these sprays is that they all have a two toned effect to them.  I used one with teal colors and the other with green and added a bit of purple ink that you can just barely see.  Lots of layers of inks and embossing powders can produce amazing effects.  

The inside is just simple ivory pages and i am going to add some old family pictures that i found while working on my ancestry books these past 2 years.  I actually have alot so i might have to make a couple more of these for the other sides of the family.

Thank you so very much for stopping by and I hope you like this project ... I have lots more to share in the weeks ahead with these new dies so i hope you can stop back again.

Hugs and Smiles.... Teresa
