My Little Shoebox and Punky Sprouts

Hello!! Just wanted to share my project at My Little Shoebox. For May, we had a product swap with Punky Sprouts. And I got to work on their Teenie-Beanie Sprout album. And here's what I have done:

"Six Wonderful Years"

This Punky Sprout album is made up of chipboards, corrugated boards and canvas.

For the cover, I played with gesso and Faber Castell Big Brush Pens. Included with the album are the blue twine, cupcake liners (which I made into a flower combined with My Little Shoebox 3-D flower) and denim strips (which I used to mat the title "Six" and also tie around the rings).

For these pages, I painted over with gesso as well. I tore away the surface of the corrugated board (banner shaped) to expose the inside and paint over with gesso.

Here, I masked and misted the canvas using Tattered Angels glimmer mist. Die-cut the MLS paper and use the negative to frame the canvas.

I used the same masking and misting for this side of the canvas as well. Also painted the background of another page with gesso and acrylic paint.

For the rolled flower, I used the denim strips provided and paired with MLS 3-D flowers.

I made a pocket on this side of the canvas to store additional journaling notes. And I combined the banners from MLS(paper banner) and Punky Sprouts(denim banner). Again I tore the surface of the corrugated board.

I pop up the clouds in this last page.

The back cover of the album was converted into a clipboard using 7 Gyspies clipboard Clip. This is to store extra journaling notes or documents. I layered some MLS papers over the coat of gesso.

What I love about Punky Sprouts album is that there are different types of album bases: chipboards, canvas, corrugated boards and I get to try different techniques on each type. And I didn't really cover all pages with papers as I would love to "expose" their textures and show some of the "raw" surfaces. 

Well, I hope you are inspired to try out this album by Punky Sprouts. Do hop on over to My Little Shoebox to view the beautiful creations of our design team members.
