Scallop Square Mini

We made this cute little mini at our June Club meeting. Very easy, all pages made with the Bigz Scallop Square. There are 6 pages, double layers. The front and back covers were put through the Big Shot with the Vintage Wallpaper embossing folder then highlighted with Close to Cocoa and a sponge. I glued another square to the back so that there would be a smooth surface to stamp on. I liked the weight of the two layers of cardstock so all of the pages are two squares put together. Each of the remaining pages also had the edges inked after gluing them together. The stamped images are from the Elements of Style stamp set, currently my favorite set. The other images are from the Mostly Vintage decor stencil. The combination of these two sets together is awesome! Most of the stencils were done with Chocolate Chip ink but a couple were done with spritzing on the Log Cabin Smooch Spritz, very nice effect. Go easy on the spritz though, a little goes a long way! Putting the two layers together also hid the back of the brads that I used for embellishment on one of the pages that I used the stencil on. The butterfly on the front is from the Beautiful Butterflies die, cut from Dusty Durango. I stamped it with the flower from the Elements of Style set and then spread a thin layer of Crystal Effects over it. I'm going to finish it off by tying ribbon to the ring.
