New Layout; Piano Photo Shoot

Piano Photo Shoot

All the papers used are also from one of the new Kaiser ranges; Pennyroyale.The backing piece is black Bazzill card.
The first page has a strip of the Lillian paper from the Pennyroyale collection, I have traced scallops using a ruler and then cut out. It is distressed with sandpaper around the edges. On this piece is the title. The brackets are stamped and then glued onto chipboard and cut out. It was stamped in bright red and then light brown ink rubbed over the top. A piece of black tulle is gathered under the first word in the title. All three words are put onto die-cuts, they are from the Die-cut Elements that match the range. The letters are from Heidi Swapp Chipboard letters and brown letters from Rosemoka. All are distressed with sandpaper. The die-cuts are mounted on the page with foam mounting tape. The flowers are cut out from the Wendy piece of paper. All are mounted on top of each other. Flowers are folded in half and pushed under the cut out flowers. A button is added to the centre of the flower. All photos are small. I printed out 4 photos per one 6’ by 4’ photo. Most of the small photos are 2’ by 2’. The large ones are 3’ by 2’ and 4’ by 4’. All photos are sanded around the edges with sandpaper to make the edges white. There is a smaller die-cut added to the corner of the bottom right photo, mounted with foam mounting tape.

New Layout; Miss Molly

Miss Molly;
Backing paper is just one from Kaiser, it comes from the purple butterfly range, one that has a slight pattern on the back. Orange bazzil used for the template used with the photos. All the paper scraps came from my scrap box stash. I think they are My Minds Eye and Making Memories {noteworthy} range. Flowers and gems just from my stash and the little die cut also from my stash, it came in one of those packets at Blossies that had many diecuts all with similar themes. Photos are all cut to fit into the orange template perfectly. The title is made up of two different letters. The little orange letters are My Little Shoebox and the bigger blue ones from Pink Paislee. Stamping the date is with lack chalk ink using the stamps from a Kaiser stamp range- “Dated”. Piece of ribbon is also from my stash. Orange little cross-stitches are in the corner that are hand sewn.
