Hello,
Today you find me over on The Mad Scrapper Blog with this dreamy layout using beautiful papers and wonderful florals from Uniquely Creative available in store. A full list of supplies can be found below.
I started by choosing my main paper and ripping across so as I could keep the stitched Hope on view, then I tore across keeping the clock in sight. I flipped the paper to show the dots then after noticing how much I would have to play with I inked to two edges and stuck them down so no gaps showing this gave me just over 11 inches so I trimmed it up straight and distressed all edges and then attached it to a 11.5 piece of black and then that went down on to the light pink side of the coordinating cardstock bundle pack.
Then after deciding where my photograph would sit I die cut a piece of gold mirri card using a cover plate which cuts out those beautiful shell like pieces. I wanted to have it popping out both top and bottom so cut it up saving some of the little gold dots. Then I took a Dusty Attic chipboard in a heart design ( I like this because it came 12x12 in size) and painted it in gold acrylic and placed it at the bottom before sticking it down I added one of the larger florals.
A note about the florals they have a sticky back and they are in vellum so once I removed the backing I placed them on to copy paper and then close cut around them to remove the white edges, this also allowed me to put some card under some to give dimension when added to the layout you can not see the paper through the flower. They are beautiful and they are easy to cut around if this what you like to do. If you don't fancy these then the other Creative Cuts would work just as well.
Once I was happy with the above I mounted my photo on to the same pink as the bottom layer and then on to a light sage green I added some spare chipboard bits to level it out and attached it to the layout
Here you can see more of the flowers added to the top left, again card was added to some for dimension
Here you can see I added more flowers around the bottom right corner.
You will have seen on some of the photos above and this next one that I did use some of the gold dots out of the die cut as well as some pearls in a lovely pink
Thanks for stopping by again today. You may not have a photograph that you can match to a paper but you really want to make a layout so always check out Pinterest or even a magazine mine came from Pinterest this time around.
If you are not lucky enough to be able to pop in and see Janine then go to The Mad Scrapper and look around at your pleasure.
Sue.
