first anniversary


they say your first anniversary gift is supposed to be paper...so a couple years ago, i made my husband a photo album with pictures of us together, using a heart-shaped blank board book. each side of the seven pages has one photo that i printed out in sepia tone. i inked all the edges of the book with my trusty permapaque paint markers, then covered some pages with papers, others i painted with ranger colorwash spray paints (which i love working with, so easy to spritz and smear around for different effects). i added some different embellishments, i especially like the embroidered fabric letter tabs.
