Acrylic and Faber-Castell Design Memory Craft

  

Hey bloggers Rita Barakat here! I can't help but get excited when I see these beautiful rich colors! As soon as I saw this paper I had to use it for the cover of this mini album. I loved the colors so much I painted the title to match!



The title is acrylic. 

I dry embossed it, added gesso, then added color with Faber-Castell Design Memory Craft® Guava, Metallic Melon and Chocolate Gelatos® and a dry sponge to blend the color. On top and on the edges I used a black Stampers Big Brush.  



The brown felt are rub ons.

I used cream acrylic paint on the edges & splattered it on the album.  I brushed gold paint randomly on the inside of the acrylic cover.

I plan to use this album to record all the blessings our family has experienced through

the years - I think it will make a great conversation piece!
