Documenting 2011 with Rommel Okuma

Hey folks! Rommel here today to share some inspiration using Glitz Designs patterned paper and embellishments for this Holiday.  I created 2 projects, an altered canvas for Christmas (that you can use as home decor) and a chipboard mini album telling my stories in 2011.

Let's go!  In this altered project I used Vintage Blue collection papers.

I almost created a monochromatic project. But I've missed some colors details. LOL :)  So, I did make this flowers!

The tag was made using several kinds of spray ink and white emboss powder. See other details of this project below:

You can made an altered canvas like this to decorate your house for the holidays, using a beautiful photo of your family or of your children.

The other project I made for inspiring you all is a mini album, using the chipboard album from Dance in Sunshine Collection. The colors of this collection inspired me to tell my life in 2011; My conquers, some funny facts, and all the good things I lived in this amazing year!

The cover decorating using Glitz Teeny Alphas - White Type.

A great conquer in this year: an invite to be part of Glitz Design - 2011 Design Team. The Clear Stamps of this collection are really beautiful with some gorgeous designs! The quote I choosed to open my memorys from 2011 is: "Life isn't about waiting for the storm to pass... it's learning to dance in the rain!"

My cat Wasabi, I adopted in January, and the ladies of a workshop I taught at Rio de Janeiro. I used a several itens of Dance in Sunshine - Whatnot.

Bellow you can see the details of Chipboard Sticker and Whatnot.

A new apartament and a iten of Whatnot pack with a quote from H. D. Thoreau:

A special page to our Scrapbooking Fair (we have a big one in São Paulo!), and my new job as Marketing Assistant in a Wholesale Craft Company!

Another photo, now with a team I taught in several workshops in that Fair!

I loved this die cut, from Whatnot pack too! And the mint grunge Tenny Alpha, so lovely:
