Hi friends! Today I have a new accordion mini album to share with you from my second time working through Tracy Evans' Accordion Book Workshop. I made Tracy's album very similar to her original in the live class several years ago, posted HERE. It's always great fun to take one of Tracy's classes, which you can join through her FB group HERE.
For the covers of my book, I used an Eileen Hull die. My insides were a little too thick, so I added a button closure. I used PaperArtsy Fresco Chalk Acrylics in Hint of Mint, Sargasso and Blue Jeans. I've created a little flip through on YouTube HERE.
For my pages, I used Distress Oxides in Cracked Pistachio, Shaded Lilac, Faded Jeans and Salvaged Patina. I added in some Squeezed Lemonade Distress Ink for the pops of yellow.
My mom and I worked through this class together and it was a lot of fun. I ended up making two similar books rather than decorating the backsides of my accordion and will try to share book two with you soon.
You can see many of my projects featuring Tracy's stamps HERE.

What a wonderful little book with so much detail and beauty!
Love this Autumn - the simple colourway is certainly perfect for the wee canvas you used - love how you left some of the flowers uncoloured - it is a fabulous technique so you don't overwhelm the whole.
