DIY Smashbook Serendipitous Scrapper |
I'm taking a break from posting and listing new Christmas stuff for the shop. It just felt odd to be covered in glitter and tinsel while I put the finishing touches on my kids' Halloween costumes.
I made this smash book for a church auction a little while ago, and have yet to have a chance to share it. The cover and back are a Melody Ross Chipboard album I found on clearance. The inside includes everything but the kitchen sink!
Homemade smashbooks are a fantastic way to get rid of odds and ends. I included the following items to name just a few:
buttons
lace remnants
ribbon
felt die cuts
map pages
notebook pages
wallies
tabs
stick pins
fabric flowers
paper bows
dyed doilies
book marks
envelopes
plastic record
paper die cuts
cardstock
pattern paper
pearls
kraft bags
transparency sheets
Bows and appliques off used clothing
Shipping tags
Vintage Ads
Canvas and fabric remnants
lined paper
grid paper
dictionary pages
Cleaning up was AWFUL. I had stuff all over the craft room, but the expression on the winner's face was worth it. She is giving it to her daughter as a gift.
Have a great day,
