Spring Time Acrylic Album
This scrapbook idea allows you to look back while you spring forward into warmer weather.
In the Designer's Words: "This is a fast and easy tutorial on how to make a fun Spring themed Acrylic album. I love to use spray paint when working with acrylic, to add some fun colors! For this project I used the Design Master Tint product and found it to be really easy to use and gave a great result! Who knew you can spray paint acrylic albums? The effect it gives is so nice and you can still add embellishments on top. I hope you try this project or another acrylic project with spray paint!"
