Think Outside the Album

How much have you invested in Scrapbooking materials?

Probably more than you want to know, right? Why not make the most of them with altered items? Altered items are a great for home decorating or for gifts. Here’s a project using the Fancy Pants Botanical line, Diamond Glaze, some odds and ends like buttons and flowers and some plain wood letters I bought at a craft store. It became a present for my mother in law.

To make this

  • Paint the edges with acrylic paint. Let Dry.
  • Apply the Diamond glaze to the front side and place down on the back of the paper. Again, let dry.
  • Using scissors and a craft knife, trim off excess paper.
  • Repeat on the back side and apply odds and ends.
