Paper Issues and Tombow Blog Hop



Hello and Welcome to the Tombow USA and PaperIssues Blog Hop!  You probably got here from Beth Watson's blog, but if not you can head over to the Paper Issues Blog to get the whole line-up and start from the beginning.  You don't want to miss anything!  For my hop project, I created a fun mini to showcase pictures from our trip to the Florida Keys last summer.  It's one of our favorite places to vacation!  Take a peek...


I used Color Chaos and Clear Cuts from Bella Blvd. for the body of my album, and the embellishments are from various Bella Blvd. Collections.  To hold it all together securely, I used Tombow Xtreme Permanent Adhesive and Tombow Mono Aqua Liquid Glue.  The liquid glue was perfect for use on the Clear Cuts, since it goes on and dries clear, Also, I loved the Xtreme Adhesive for adding embellishments...especially in a mini album that gets handled a lot, it really keeps things where you want them!


 Here are some peeks at the inside pages....

 




And I couldn't resist embellishing the back page! 


Both Tombow USA and Paper Issues are offering giveaways so be sure to visit all of the blogs on the hop. Tombow USA is giving away an assortment of their adhesives, the same ones used by the Paper Issues team including Tombow Mono Adhesive Permanent, NEW Tombow Adhesive Dots, Tombow Mono Multi Liquid Glue and Tombow Mono Aqua Liquid Glue. Paper Issues is giving away a $20 Gift Card to the Paper Issues Store.  To win, visit and comment on all of the participating bloggers' posts.  When you're done, be sure to head on over to the Paper Issues Facebook Page and tell us which project is your favorite.  You have until May 12th at 11:59 EST to comment.  Winners will be picked randomly and announced on May 13, 2015. 




Now one more thing before you move on... I'd like to share the cut file I created for my album.  You can access the Silhouette file here!
