Imaginarium Designs - DT Project Feb 2012

It is now my turn at "Imaginarium Designs" Blog to show 
my Design Team projects for this month.

February is the month of LOVE, so I decided to 
create 2 projects around this theme.

My 1st project is a Mini-book & stand.

It's called,

"To my Valentine - together, forever, LOVE"

This is an altered art project which I have enjoyed making.

It is a chipboard stand with a matching mini book cover,

The Imaginarium Designs chipboards are the mini or "tinies" range

available from Imaginarium Designs website.

Lots of techniques -  with distressing, embossing and stamping.
