scrapped: A Timeless Birthday

i've been itching to use the Bo Bunny Mini Edgy Album Pocketwatch that i got when i bought Piradee's Grab Bags.

and a dear friend's birthday proved the perfect time to make use of it.

and so.

supplies:- Bo Bunny Mini Edgy Album Pocketwatch + Petals + Blitzen Brads. Webster's Pages Designer Trim Hollywood. Versa Color 80 White + 66 Burgundy + 82 Black. Button Bonanza Harvest.

Melody Ross Designer Colections Chipboard Circle Stickers. American Crafts Thickers. October Afternoon Mini Market Pink & Black. Authentique Diction.

the Kraft alphas proved to be a challenge.

i didn't have any paint sprays so i ladened three different Versa Colors, hoping that the word 'timeless' will pop.

lesson learnt.

(^.^)

and flowers are never to be ignored.

i hope she loves this, because i do.

\(^.^)/

TFL!!!

scrapped: Maya Road Chipboard

i took a piece from when my cousin was doing a mini album for her dear friend.

this was supposed to be a 100% experiment because it was totally my first time doing up a chipboard.

it was lopsided [to me] at first.

then i added a few things on the left and now it looks better.

**i'm obsessed with balance (-___-)"""**
