Album by Suzanne Franin

Hey Everyone!

 

This project for the Helmar Blog is a photo album cover which I decorated with lots of metal and some paper clay pieces. 

Make sure you check out the rest of the Blog for some fantastic inspiration from the Design Team!

 This is a Tim Holtz Album Cover that has preprinted fabric on it.

With all the metal and paper clay I painted it with Finnabair's Art Alchemy Metallique Rustic Brown.

Once it was all dry I brushed everything over with a light coat of Finnabair's Art Alchemy Metallique Wax in Vintage Gold.

 But I found it to be a bit too gold so I used Finnabair's Art Alchemy Opal Magic Vintage Silk over the top to lighten it a little.

I used the Premium Craft Glue to adhere all of the embellishments to the cover which is so good for all different types of products to stick things down with. 

Metal on metal, metal to fabric, paper to fabric and lots more.

 This Key hole is from Graphic 45 I love how detailed it is.

 The image is a piece from one of Tim Holt's Ephemera packs which I cut into an oval shape, then covered the edge with some twine.

 I added a Bee Flair from Embellish With Flair Vintage Bees into a bottle top along with a piece of tulle fabric and a little clock.

 I had some Finnabair Mechanicals which is what the ART piece is which is what I added to the centre of the angels centre piece.

 Then I added some other bits of metal I had in my stash.

Now all I need to do is add photos or maybe add some art journal pages!
