Hi! This Clear Envelope Brag Book was made for todayÂ’s Stampin' BÂ’s Challenge and fits the Ways to Use it challenge: In with the new. (The stamp set is a Sneak Peek, so it's New!)
I wanted to use inexpensive small zip lock bags for the “envelopes" in this book, as I didn't have any clear envelopes! LOL
So, that meant I had to use a 6½” x 4 ¼” and a 5 ½” x 4 ¼” sheet of card stock for the covers. I folded the longer sheet at 1”. This was VERY easy, as I placed the plastic bags, filled with images, photos, etc in the book and used a Crop a Dile to punch the holes to hold the ribbon.
The image was stamped in Noir onto watercolor paper. I used Pearlescent watercolors to color in the image. (I colored two images. One was used on the inside.)
Paper: Mark's Finest Papers: Desert Sand, Wonderful Watercolor, 7 Gypies dp...it's that rust color used as layers and a different patterned one for the panel

What a gorgeous sunflower! Love the MS border punch and the charm at the bottom is a lovely touch.
