The album I am putting together here is about the high lights of our family's life in 2011. I am using the Reminisce power palette by Creative Memories, mostly. I like the look of the papers in this collection and how all the embellishments go so we'll together. However, on some pages I like to add a few other products to enhance some details. On the above page I added some Distress Stickles by Ranger. The small blue frame is the same blue cardstock by Colorbok used elsewhere which I cut with my Cricut and The Reminisce by Creative Memories cartridge. I added Faded Jeans stickles to the top frame for added dimension.
I chose to use: Faded Jeans, Scattered Straw, and Rock Candy. The Title sticker is from my collection, I beleive it is from Memory Makers. The blue ribbon trim is upcycled from a gift I had received. The blue card stock is Colorbok. I used the Creative Memories Border maker and scallop cartridge for making the laced border. I used the Rock Candy Stickles to bring out the little lights on the Chicago night sky.
I added the Scattered Straw Stickles to the golden coloured swirls on the lower paper. I also fussy cutter around the top edge of the swirls. I used some Faded Jeans Stickles as accents on the blue ribbon trim.
Here is another page from the same scrapbook where I used some more Distress stickles just to bling up the Dragonfly.
On the dragon fly I used some Distress Stickles: Broken China and Frayed Burlap. In nature dragon flies do reflect some shiny colours but they are subdued, so I felt that the Distress Stickles were perfect for this look.
Next week I will be posting a tutorial on how to use more of the wonderful Distress Stickles in Mixed Media over at the All That Stickles blog, so come see!
