Hello my friends, I have been a bad blogger lately.
To make up for that I'll share TWO pages today that I made with the February kit from Scraps of Elegance.
I should have posted these already a few days ago as there is a NEW wonderful kit out for March that I will share with you in a couple of days . I've been having some computer issues (Thank heaven for mobile phone internet so I can still keep in touch,...) but today I'm on the PC again!
I have used the 'Smitten' line from Authentique here as well as some bits from My Minds Eye Record It 'Heirloom'.
I prepared a few close ups ( if too many feel free to scroll down LOL!)
I used one of Ingvild Bolmes little metal zippers as an embellishment and lots of stamps ans flowers.
I used a stencil to take break up the repeated pattern of hearts and make it less obvious in some areas.
I used a series of three cute photos of youngest DD and our kitte, Lady. It's an easy way to add more that just the one photo to your page.
And now for my second page for today;
Even here the main papers are from Authentique. I think they nailed it with this line, and if you like you could even say I was 'Smitten',...LOL! Again I use a series of three pictures. These were taken in Stockholm when we went up for her students visa to the US. She has been across the big sea since October now and we can't wait to have her back here.
I used the chandelier sprays from the kit to make little sprigs of chrystals and roses. I was meaning to post a short picture tuturial and it may come one day next week.
There was a pot of lovely pink glitter in the kit, and below you can see how I added some to the Martha Stewart butterfly. The flowers all got a lick of white paint to make them a little more 'shabby'.
The title was cut using my Silhouette Cameo.
The word 'Delightful' is a cutfile and 'Girl' is just simply written in my selected font and then cut.
That's all for now.
I had a happy mail some days ago and I am waiting to hear how soon I can tell you all about it!!
I can't wait!! Hope to see you back soon so I can tell you about it!! <3
Take care!
These are gorgeous! I love how you have used 3 photos and all the flowers look wonderful...Look forward to hearing your news!
