Mixed Media Monthly January Challenge - Ring in the New

Hello there! I have some mid-month inspiration for you for our current challenge, Ring in the New.

Image may contain: text

I created a little mini album to chronicle goals for 2018. I think it's much more fun and inspirational than a plain old piece of paper. ;-)



The covers are cut using Eileen Hull's Trinket Box die and colored with Distress inks and sprays. I added some stamping using archival ink and then covered it all with Crazing Collage Medium for a subtle crackle.


The pages are accordion style and I stamped on the front and back.
