Using Things you have lying around


For this one I used up heaps of bits and pieces I had lying around. The background piece is Bazzil; the photo is also matted in pink Bazzil which is then inked with light blue. I have used a journaling piece from Making Memories Paperie range


The large card flower is a My Minds Eye die-cut from way back, which has paper flowers and a rose in the centre. Above the flower is the journaling which I have typed and cut into strips. Underneath is a chipboard frame which I have embossed in light blue, this was done twice as to make it thicker. Underneath the large flower is a paper flower cut in half, a small crotched flower with a paper one in the centre and a flocked Doodlebug Design brad. Underneath the flower is a pink lace with a scalloped pink piece, this is an October Afternoon die-cut sheet, a few years go it was a Christmas one. A small piece of Celebrations blue ric-rac and a plastic brad under that. A circle Heidi Swapp die-cut is underneath the flowers; next to the circle is an October Afternoon journaling label


The title is Pink Paislee letters which have been distressed, next to it is a Basic Grey pearl flourish. Around the page is a blue spotted thick ribbon with a smaller organza Celebrations ribbon, there is also a Birch pink trim along the blue ribbon.


At the top of the page I’ve ripped the background piece and ripped it down and folded out the two pieces. I have used a piece of paper which would be hidden under the photo to be seen under the ripped piece. A flower with paper rose under the ripped piece. To finish the page is a pink bracket die-cut mounted with foam tape. It is from the Kaiser Childs Play range. The whole page was coated in Glimmermist before adding the photo.
