Our Trip to Hershey
I recently had the chance to work with our new Home for the Holidays kit. It comes with the gate fold album, Olive Vine, Cramel Apple and Brick glimmer mists, a regal Glimmer Screen and a box of Embossed Frosty Memories glimmer chips, among other things.
I decided that I wanted to create an album about our trip to Hershey Park last Christmas Season. I took the gate off of the album, layed on the screen and sprayed it with Olive Vine and Brick. Once it was dried, I highlighted the design with gold Stickles.
I punched two holes in the front of the album and created a closure with the ribbon. I added a wreath that was made with the greenery and added a glittered glimmer chip to the center, along with a tag with the album title.
Here’s a look at the inside of the album:
What I love about the Tattered Angels albums is that they come with so many pages. I figured out how many I needed and removed the rest. The extras became tags that framed my photos. Each double page spread had two facing tags. This was the main design of my pages.
I painted the Glimmer Chips and added glitter to them. I also punched snowflakes from extra pages that I misted. I liked the negative look of the paper, so I used it here.
I also added gold glitter to the center of all of the snowflakes.
On this two page spread, I misted the Glimmer Screen and stamped with it.
And these are the last two pages.
That’s it! I had a lot of fun making this one. Be sure to check out the kits at the Tattered Angels site. They’re 25% off!
Thanks for stopping by! ~Anabelle

Found your blog from Heidi Swapp and glad I did! Love this album. I am always looking
for mini albums and I think I need to add some mists to my stoking wishlist.
