I couldn’t leave the scrapbook alone for long, I needed to get the cover finished. (See yesterday’s post if you have no clue what I’m talking about.)
Today I decided to stencil part of the flourish in each corner in the same style and colors as yesterday. Once I had that done and at least
mostly dry, I tied double-stitched Chocolate Chip Grosgrain ribbon around the cover and added a few little embellishments.
For the embellishments I used an “m” from the Lots of Letters Chipboard set and colored it with Night of Navy classic ink. On an extended tag, cut with the Stampin’ Up! tag punches, I stamped the definition of “memories” from the Define Your Life stamp set. The tag and M along with three pearls are attached to a hat pin from the Pretties Kit.
So, have I successfully changed the plain Night of Navy cover? I’m very excited about it! Now the whole scrapbook truly is my own work of art!
