Altered Spring Photo Album













Created this Altered Photo Album using a photo
album I bought in an after Easter sale 66% off last
yr at Hobby Lobby. Used 3 Birds on Parade Cricut
cartridge for the cute Rain Bird image.

Still had some of the Neiman Marcus Rum Cake
purple textured packaging left so I used some for
the rain boots.

Used glitter for "rain" shine & ribbon for embellishment.
