Crate Paper Restoration fun

When the new CHA release sneaks were shown before the big trade show, the Crate Paper Restoration collection was one of our very favorites among the design team at My Scrapbook Nook. We were so excited when we found out that we could have it for our September kit.

Here is a mini album that I created for a class at the Nook using this collection. You can see the class with all of my step-by-step instructions here: http://www.myscrapbooknook.org/forum/viewtopic.php?t=31648


Here's the cover with one of those fun accordion flowers. Thanks to the amazing Sasha Holloway who had these on her blog along with where to find them (the fab girls at Stampin Up! had some tutorials on YouTube). I also used some of the Restoration brads and rub-ons for this. 


 And some of the inside pages. Please ignore the fact that one of the letters in Matt's name was falling off and I didn't realize until I was editing the pictures. I used my little retro flower and photo corner punches from EK Success to add a little extra to the pages. 



If you'd like to make one of your own, check out the kit here at the Nook:

Have a great day!
