My beautiful girls

Every week I get a newsletter from Sudsol which is an online group for Stampin’ Up! Demonstrators and it contains a number of challenges.  This week’s scrapbook challenge works perfectly with a photo of my two gorgeous girls and my eldest granddaughter taken at my nieces wedding.

I layered a piece of the gorgeous Morning Mocha Specialty Designer Series Paper (this paper has a raised flocked effect, so not just pretty to look at but gorgeous to touch) onto a 12 x 12″ sheet of Basic Black card stock.  I attached the photo to a layer of Basic Black cardstock which has been punched along the lower edge using the Pinking Hearts Border Punch.  I wrapped a piece of Very Vanilla Velvet Designer Ribbon (to be released on 1st December) around the bottom of the page and added my flowers.  The flowers are made using the Fancy Flower Punch, 5 Petal Flower Punch and the Boho Blossoms punch.  I used 1 flower in each shape from Real Red card stock, distressed and separated each into two layers, scrunched them and then stacked them onto a small Filigree brad which has a medium Clear Rhinestone Brad throught the centre.

I attached the flowers to the page using Mini Glue Dots.

I punched 6 leaves from Old Olive card stock using the Blossom Petals Builder Punch, separated them, scrunched them and opened them out again.  I used Crystal Effects to join the leaves together and attached them behind the flowers.

You can tell this is my style, fairly simple with all the emphasis on that gorgeous photo.

Bye for now, Kris.
