I made this cute little brag book using SU! clear envelopes (5) so 10 pictures.  Created a cover using Basic Black and then I took a piece of Blue Bayou cardstock and stamped the weathered background stamp in versamark and clear embossed over it.  I then used my brayer and inked over the entire piece in black ink.  I think it turned out pretty cool!  It gave it a little leathery look.  The Happy Father's Day stamp is stamped in blue bayou and then embossed with the thick clear EP.  (Can't remember the exact name)  I tried to do the cracked glass technique but I don't think I left it in the freezer long enough because the EP wanted to come off, so I left it with the little crack.  On the tag I did the faux metal technique using silver embossing powder and the saying from the stamp set One of a Kind.  I then punched it out using the Key Tag Punch from SU!  I set 3 jumbo pewter eyelets using my crop-o-dile and on the ribbon and pewter ribbon slide from the hodgepodge hardware kit.  I didn't want to bling it up too much as it is for my husband, and you know guys...:) I think Dave will love it as there are pictures of Kaitlyn and the boys.....even a picture of me!  :) 
I originally created this project for a workshop that I was invited to do here in Chilliwack.  What a blast!  This group of ladies were so fun!  I hope I get to creft with them again in the future!
