These chipboard album covers were done for a swap on the Scraps of Color site. I didn't know how I wanted to decorate the album covers. It turned out somewhat vintage.
I covered the heart with archival misted bible pages. I have had this ripped up bible since high school. I just couldn't get rid of it, so I decided to use it as art. I trust that God will be pleased. Trimmed the front cover with tulle and lace. The embellishments all represent some things that I love: cross iron on, music brad, poetry tag, drama mask charm, Shimmer misted book page-flowers, stick pin-made with beads from stash, and pearls. Sentiment(s): "All that we love deeply becomes a part of us." Helen Keller and "Those who bring sunshine into the lives of others cannot keep it from themselves."
On the back: various heart diecuts cut from the left over tags that I used on my actual page for the swap, smooched lace heart, cross dimensional sticker, lock and key brads, pearls. The butterfly represents my change and growth. The metal heart tag holder is made from ornament holders that I purchased after Christmas at Target. The tags are pictures of DIVA-licious ME and my house. There is a feel good story about my house; those who know me also know why I chose to display it on the tag.
God's love and sacrifice truly is the key to my heart.
