Camino used the new Booville collection from Pinkfresh Studio to create a Spook-tacular Interactive Mini Scrapbook Album project. The cover of her album is acetate decorated with a chalkboard inspired label and lots of pretty flowers along with some tiny enamel gems. The white base of the album measures 6″ x 5″ with fussy cut spider webs on the corners, some pumpkins and stitched hanging spiders on the spine and back. It also ties closed with black tulle.

She continues using this wonderful collection created by Paige Taylor Evans using pattern papers, puffy and cardstock stickers, rub-ons and chipboard and enamel shapes, all in soft pastel colors, to decorate the pages. Some of which have delightful interactive elements like shakers behind layers of tulle, flaps and pockets and even a stand up easel.

Find directions and lots more photos over on the Pinkfresh Studio blog.
