Stampin' Up Oh So Succulent Card, Mini Vellum Gift Bag, Mini Album, Bookcase Builder - III

We had a bit of spotty rain this morning and it's supposed to be in the high 60's today.  So, we are getting closer to our normal Spring weather.

The Eastern Palace Suite Bundles went live last week for all Customers to order.  You can order on-line from me at www.stampinup.com and please choose me, Lynn Gauthier, as your Demonstrator.

Stampin' Up also restocked the Clearance Rack last week.  There's some awesome, awesome deals.  

And, don't forget about the Retiring List of Products.
 
My share for today is an Oh So Succulent Mini Album that I made following a Fellow Stampin' Up Demonstrators, Rachel Tessman, instructions on her blog post Here.  There are many, many tutorials out on the web for Mini Albums too.  I was also inspired by a card and a Vellum Gift Bag shown to us by Stampin' Up in a weekly update that Demonstrators receive from Stampin' Up and Rachel's album seemed to go along with my card and Vellum Gift Bag.  Again, I changed a few things up; but, basically it's the same layout.

Let's take a look:

I followed Rachel's instructions to make the Mini Album; but, I used Crumb Cake and the new Tranquil Tide Cardstock and Oh So Succulent Designer Series Paper.

For the Succulents that I made for my album; I used Stampin' Up's new Tranquil Tide Cardstock for the Large Succulents.  

Using SU's Oh So Succulent Stamp Set, I stamped my Succulents in Mint Macaron, Calypso Coral, Sweet Sugarplum, Old Olive and Lemon Lime Twist.

I used my Calypso Coral Stampin' Write Marker to color in portions of a couple of the Succulents.

Using SU's Bookcase Builder Stamp Set, I stamped my Sentiment onto a scrap piece of Whisper White Cardstock, Trimmed it out as shown in the picture above and sponged around the edges with Sweet Sugarplum Ink.

 
Pictured above are some more of the Succulents that I made for a couple of the inside pages of my Mini Album.

And, some more Succulents.

  
Pictured above is the first two pages of the Mini Album.  I used Tranquil Tide and Whisper White Cardstock and then embellished the two corners with the Succulents.

 
On the fold out pages of the Mini Album, I used Whisper White Cardstock and Succulent Garden Designer Series Paper.

This was such a fun project to make.  Thanks so much Rachel for the instructions to make the Mini Album.

My Oh So Succulent Card, Vellum Gift Bag and Mini Album will be going out to a very dear friend of mine.

That's all I have for today.  I hope you enjoyed my blog post and thanks for stopping by!
