These are my last two pages out of the five I made from the Cést Magnifique Kit, I went completely mad with the shimmerz on this one and painted the background with it its a shame you can't see how sparkly it all is.
This is a photo of my Sister inlaw, my nephew and niece at what looks like an fun day at the park judging by the face painting also taken quite a few years ago but I thought it went perfectly with this range of papers.
This page is definitely going to have to go into a shadow box as the flower is way to big, I have also given this a treatment of gesso and shimmerz, again so much prettier and sparklier in real life. I have dyed the lace from the kit with the shimmerz and the banner was made from the packaging, I stamped with a banner stamp and embossed with white powder. Other flowers have been hand made using my sizzix 3D flower die.
Swirls have been cut from the paper using one of my sizzlets die and I have used gesso and shimmerz to give them some texture.

Teresa Collins Fabrications Canvas TrinketsFor this layout we used the beautiful sketch that Nadia put together, I love that she even included the super size bird cage.
This is a picture of my mum when she was baby, again the papers worked beautifully with this older style photo. I have also used the packaging from the Theresa Collins trinkets I sanded off the wording before doing so.
The lace applique was spritzed with Maya Roads Cream Metallic mist to tone down the brightness of the white. I coloured the bird cage with the shimmerz and the rolled flowers where again made with the sizzix 3D die.
