So onto the Cést Magnifique June Kit Reveal
This page uses a picture of my Dad when he was a kid. I used the secrets paper, because anyone who has had a dog growing up as a kid knows how many secrets you tell your loving companion. I also wanted to show some versatility with this kit so that you could also see this range used for a masculine page by pulling out the browns and greens. The Dusty Attic chippies went beautifully with this masculine theme and I absolutely loved the way it turned out.
I used the Tim Holtz Cog die on the canvas buttons for the flowers on this page. The Strips cut of from the bottom of the paper read secrets so I decided to incorporate it onto the spools turning them into little banners.

ReplyDeleteSuch a sweet layout fi. Love the way you took the lovely Pandore papers and mad them your own.
ReplyDeleteLove the chicken wire template, I think I've got the negative one to yours.That chippie grass from the kit looks fabulous too. Everything is so well put together!
Hope your trip goes all according to plan and you get to rest and have some decent sleep. The scrapbooking is always there but you can't feel good sleep-deprived. Lovely layout using the Pandore papers - yay!! I love brown right now (in fact always) and you did a great job of it. Looking forward to that grassy chipboard but not those canvas buttons. I've had them in a kit before and really I don't know what MR were thinking...
ReplyDeleteI absolutely love this page, the photo looks so vintage and the way you've incorporated your embellies suits it so well. I love the template of chicken wire, I've yet to master this art of templates.
