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!
