For my project today I have put together a tin with an according fold out pages. The tin and according fold out is from Oriental Trading, different colors of paper from my stash, stamps that I have pick up at Michael's in the dollar bin and some the papers with designs on them are from journal pad. The top of the tin has the bird from Nifty Fifties cart and the flowers from Country Lifte cart and used Glossy accents to make them shinny. Used my gel pens to accent some of the pages. You could say I had sooooo much fun putting this together.

Well if you are arriving here from Barbara's Blog than you are on the right Track! if you aren't then head on over to Debbie's Blog as she is the Starting point for this Hop!
