Watercolor mini album and a challenge

Happy weekend everyone! I have a fun little mini album to share today, but first I want to let you know that the Cut it Out July challenge at The Cut Shoppe is up and there's a fun prize for you to win!!

Here are the details:

- Create a layout using at least one of the Cut Files, that can be purchased from The Cut Shoppe Etsy Store.
- Come back to this post at The Cut Shoppe blog, and leave a link to your layout.
- Make sure you leave your link by midnight CST on July 31st.

A random winner will be selected for a $10 cut file shopping spree, and announced on August 1st!

Every week there are new cut files in The Cut Shoppe store. This is one of the new ones of this week, which you can find overhere in the store.

Now on to a little mini album I've made. I was inspired by the Clique Kits Summer School where Gia shared some great video's with watercolors. Usually I'm not really a getting my hands dirty kinda girl, but I thought it was about time to get those watercolors out again.

I made some pages out of watercolor paper and gave each page an ombre effect. I used a couple instax pictures from the Florida trip and embellished the pages with washi tapes, buttons from A Flair for Buttons, vellum bags, Technique Tuesday stamps, Studio Calico paperclips and sequins.

Thanks for stopping by today and enjoy your weekend!
