Normally I am a layout girl, but with Halloween fast approaching, I have been feeling very crafty. I think it must be all the super cute decorations I see as I am driving through my neighborhood. Or maybe it is the stack of adorable Cottage Cutz Halloween dies sitting on my scrapbook table to inspire me every time I sit down to work. Whatever it is, I wanted to create something a little different today.
I purchased some of those $1.00 plastic photograph albums in Walmart the other day to use for brag books. Well, of course the covers that come in those are weird and not very fun. So I pulled out the front piece of paper and covered it up and this was the result...
I used velvety brown paper to cut the piece of caramel for the top of my apple. Then I sprayed it with a mixture of perfect pearls (*tip coming soon!!*) to give it some sparkle like real caramel. Now you just slip the new and improved into the plastic sleeve and voila - quick and easy upgrade to an otherwise boring photo holder. I scanned my new cover so that you could see the
caramel apple detail better.
