Mixable Medley Album

Good day, Clear Scraps friends! Leah here with you today sharing the awesome Mixable Medley album. Each album includes 5 cascading pages mixed with both Acrylic & Chipboard. My husband recently celebrated his birthday, so this album is all about him.

I used several of the 6" stencils on the chipboard pages in the album. I started by painting the album pages lightly in white, then I used distress ink and a brush to stencil on the pages. I also used alcohol ink and a stencil on the acrylic page. Here's a list of the stencils used as well as a peek at some of the pages before decorated and assembled.

Clear Scraps 6" Shattered Glass
Clear Scraps 6" Mustaches
Clear Scraps 6" Cupcakes
Clear Scraps 6" Shiplap
Clear Scraps 6" Groovy Hearts

So cute! Here is a closer look at each page.

I used an acrylic sealer on the chipboard, which created a distressed look. I didn't love it, and the nozzle was clogged. I even tried cleaning the nozzle and went forth trying to seal it anyway. I should have waited for a new can. lol, live and learn, right?! It's still cute!

I'll add in my journaling later.

I applied pattern paper to the backside of the groovy heart so the back is covered as well.

I assembled the album using 1" book rings, then tied on ribbons for more fun and color.
