Journey to Sophistication

Life is full of passages. They can be as simple as an excursion to visit relatives, or as complicated as the voyage from adolescence to adulthood. Celebrate your life’s journeys with our new My Reflections® Passages product line, available in the Summer 2010 Idea Book. Its antique maps, old postcards, classic stripes and vintage prints, serve equally well for preserving memories or creating timeless cards. The masculine tones of Barn Red, Brown Bag, Cocoa, and Garden Green provide a great neutral background for photos of all kinds, and the coordinating My Stickease® adhesive artwork have a journey theme that can apply to travel or to rites of passage.

The Distressing Kit (Z1299, p. 97) is a great complement to Passages, as you can use it to provide antique touches to all your projects. Try sanding the edges of your papers and photos, or stippling ink on your cardstock. These techniques will make your Passages projects even more cohesive and beautiful.
