Here's what Kerry says about her fourth project:
I had so much fun making this mini. I found a video on youtube to make my own mini coin envies. I found a template online for this at http://houseofstirfry.com/chia/templates/coinenv01.html
For this project I used 3 different paper packs...and I mixed and matched them....I used Pink Paislee Hocus Pocus, Basic Grey eeerie, and Fancy Pants Designs Oct. 31st paper. I used all three papers for the colors and the theme....and could interchange them....they still worked great together.
I had fun using the Stickles on the cover and using Crystal Effects for added dimension. I used the Stickles straight from the bottle and kinda used the bottle tip to move the Stickles around.
I used my distresser on the edges and added a little Tim Holtz distress ink to emphasize the distress.
I love to use my Spellbinders dies to create tags and frames. I use my trusty Big Shot or my Cuttlebug with my Spellbinder Dies....they work just great.
The tags in the envies got sprayed with Tattered Angels mist and then stamped with Crafty Secrets stamps.
When I got all the individual envies done, I played with the sequence until I was happy with the way the papers worked together.

Super cool mini!! I have yet to tackle one of these minis but I have been collecting the stuff to make one. It's really just a confidence thing, after seeing one as cool as this =) I'm also a big fan of YouTube and watching the tutorials. I've seen a couple/few with the coin envelopes and, once I do take on a mini album project, I will be sure to include at least one of the envelope techniques. Also, love the use of the Crafty Secrets stamps---I have that set and the images are so cute. Thanks for the chance to win---I LOVE your ETSY shop.
The mini is fantastic!! I love the stamping, especially the tags :) Elegant AND spooky! Thanks for giving us a peek, and for the giveaway!
Kerry is a great source for information, I'm going to try and make my first mini because of her. Keep up the good work
