April Weekend Workshop: 6x6 Mini Showcase Album

The April weekend workshop featured the 6x6 My Creations Memory Showcase accordion-style album.  The album features 6 pages with chipboard covers.

The technique used is fun-flock.  I learned this technique from Jeannette Lynton's blog the founder and CEO of CTMH).  http://www.jeanettelynton.com/  Jeannette's blog is full of fun tips and techniques.  Her blog is updated regularly and is on my "favorites" list.  So, I visit it frequently.

I used the 2" scallop circle punch to create this layered flower.  I ink distressed the edges, crinkled, mashed and wadded up the scallop circles to give them a nice distressed look.  I added a white fiber flower from the RETIRED Mini-Medley Accents:  White Daisy.  I love these flowers and still use them even though they are retired from the catalog.

This is a quick re-cap of the Jeannette's technique of coloring Fun Flock:

Place white Fun Flock in a zip lock bag (I placed it on wax paper)

Place a few drops of re-inker in a Spray Pen and then add water.  Shake well.

Mist the Fun Flock.  Allow it time to dry (I let it dry overnight).

Stamp your image and cut it out.  (I also ink distressed the edges)

Using a Bonding Memories Glue Pen I added the adhesive to the areas I wanted Fun Flock.
