A Parisian Gardens Card by Margaret Mifsud

Hello everyone and welcome.  So pleased you came by for a visit.

I have a card to share today which was made with the gorgeous  Parisian Gardens Collection from Megs Garden.  These papers are absolutely stunning.  They are available in different sizes and you can purchase them as a printed pack or as a digital download.  As well as the beautiful papers the Collection also includes lots of ephemera which beautifully compliments these lovely papers.

The small fabric buds are from my stash but all the paper blooms below are available at Megs Garden.

Some pretty lace and a piece of gauze as the base for the flower cluster ..

.. and, of course, I had to add some prills.

The chippie is from 2Crafty Chipboard and the leaves are a Cheery Lyn die.

The inside .. don't you just love these papers .. so pretty.

The papers I've used here are from the A4 digital pack.  I love the fact that I can print them out as I need them and, as I don't scrapbook, the A4 size is ideal for the cards or mini albums I make.  I simply print them out and cut them to size.  Depending on the size card I am making, I usually manage to get 2 or 3 cards out of one sheet which I think is really economical.

Wedding Treasures by Meredith Hilly

Hello everyone. I have been very busy making a box for my daughter

to put her wedding treasures in. I made it for her to keep all those wedding items that don't fit into a album. Like a hair clip or wedding personalised cuff links.

I found Megs Gardens lace dollies fitted the box perfectly. Don't be afraid

to cut them up. They are so pretty.

I fussy cut out a butterfly and added glitter to it. When it was nearly

 dry I gently folded up the wings.

Inking edges with a dark brown can give the item an aged look.

I used a lot of crystal glitter on the flowers. Made them look like I had just

watered them.

I picked some bracken fern and sprayed it silver. This gives the flowers some fine foliage to go with the flowers.

I had a ball using Megs Garden new moulds. So easy and affective.

I painted mine to look like silver.

If you gently brush the dried paint with some dark ink in the deeper parts and then

wipe of the excess you can achieve an aged look.

Thanks for dropping by. Have a lovely day.

LOVE ~ PARISIAN GARDENS RANGE

Hello Mary here to share some creating with Megs Gardens gorgeous range of papers and embellishments.
Firstly a layout from a range I truly love ~ Parisian Gardens. The papers are so pretty I really hate to cover them . Using some really old small photo's helps to solve this problem and keeping the page relatively simple.

I have had the little brass frames for ages , so decided to stagger them down the page with the narrow ribbon threaded through and cascading down the page also. For the middle frame I used a beautiful image from the cut and create sheet. The photo's are of my Mum and Dad and my aunt. To attach the frames I found Gel Medium was the best option. With the large fussy cut roses I placed them on foam squares to give dimension and then added green leaves to the roses

I have fussy cut quite a few images from the cut and create pages. The love Sentiment is cut from the cut and create page and shaded . I have used the oval filigree to attach the fussy cut images from. The large roses are fussy cut from the cut and create pages also.

I have added a little  antique pink lace under the top and bottom photo frames to add a touch of softness. I have used the little tags from the cut and create sheet at the side of my photos to add my documentation on .  All the products except the frames and heart chipboard piece can be found at Megs Store
Next I would like to share a card

I created the card with left over papers from the rose quartz range . I added the first layer of PP then  added the sheer green ribbon vertically down the page and placed another piece of pp over this.  I added a row of cream lace and a row of  antique pink lace under the  postcard image from the cut and create sheet. Behind the postcard image I have added another image and the Madame sentiment to add more layers.  I finished off by adding the filigree strip with a narrow ribbon bow and some pearl strips  and finally the fussy cut birds sitting on the branch .

I have been enjoying making these tags so much. This time I decided to make a masculine tag using the image and Monsieur word from the cut and create page.

My best friend is currently in hospital after having a double hip replacement, so I made a card to cheer her.

The background I have used  pieces of left over papers from layouts using Megs Gardens range of papers (nothing gets wasted ). I made a base using gesso, tissue paper , thread and mist to layer the images on. Lots of fussy cutting .I cut the centre from the Wreathe of flowers image and placed the Parisian lady underneath to show through. Fussy cut the two springs of flowers to place at the side, all are from the Cut and Create sheets. I added some Antique nylon Pink lace which is a little hard to see on the photo. On the opposite side I have the cream lace and Cream wide ribbon, which I have added the fussy cut decorative image upon. I then added a couple of  round silver Diamante Trim
Thank you for calling by , I hope you take some time to scroll through the blog for some amazing inspiration from the DT
until next time

Wallet Style Album ~ Parisian Gardens ~wallet

Hello everyone! I hope that you are well. Today I have a wallet style album to share with you. The construction of this album is quite simple. I followed a tutorial by Ginger from My Sister's Scrapper which you can find here. The benefit of this style album is that it is easy to construct and it doesn't use a lot of paper. You can personalise to your style or for the occassion you wish it to showcase.

One thing that is important is to plan which papers you wish to use for the front, back and inside of your album. It sounds silly but you don't want to be short nonetheless. I used some lace and a metal embellishment which you can find form Meg's Garden. The butterfly was a stamp that I had and I stamped it onto some scraps from the collection. My album uses magnets to keep it secure.

This is the inside view when the front is first opened. All of the stamps used were Kaisercraft stamps from my stash.

The first reveal....

The complete inside view with the accordian sections extended.

The back view of the album.

As you can see, this album hold lots of photos. In order to be able to open and close the album I have used the majority of my embellishments on the front cover. You could alter some of the spaces allocated for photos for journalling spots.

This album is a Christening gift for my cousin and I hope he and his wife enjoy the little snapshot of their sons in this wallet.

PARISIAN GARDEN COLLECTION - GIFT TIN WITH COLLECTION OF GIFT CARDS

Welcome Bloggers,

Today I would love to share my latest creations.  I had been looking at a little white tin that my girlfriend had given me some time ago and wondering what I could use it for.  Meg's Garden new collection 'Parisian Garden' seemed perfect for what I had in mind.

I set about covering the tin

 With the tin completed, I then made up some gift cards.  Gosh I love this collection.  Truly amazing  and versatile for sure.

 This is the back of one of the gift cards.

I trust that you have enjoyed our little journey through Meg's gorgeous collection and that you have fun creating with this new 'Parisian Gardens' collection.  Until next time....happy scrapping....Liz

STROLL THROUGH THE GARDEN ~ PARISIAN GARDENS RANGE

Hello Mary here to share a layout created with the Beautiful Parisian Gardens Range . I love this range a lot !

With very little water (living in the country we only had tank water)  my Mum had a big, beautiful garden. She loved pottering and planting and nuturing her garden, so the Cut and Create Sentiment Stroll through the Garden , gave me the idea for my layout.

I am also a little addicted to making these tags at the moment for my layouts and cards. The gorgeous images from the Cut and Create sheets are perfect for them. On this tag I have used the filigree and added some gold stick on dots. I added the gold bee charm to my flower and leaf cluster, all from Megs Store and finished off with the soft , green nylon ribbon from Megs Store.

The bead added a nice touch , along with some lace .

then of course the lady and gentleman strolling through the garden from the Cut and Create Sheet was a must.

I added a little texture with a stencil and texture paste.
Also I would like to share another couple of tags created with the images from the cut and create sheet

Such beautiful images

I have added the butterfly charm to the above tag

The tags are so much fun to make and with the cut and create images you can't go wrong.
Thank you for calling by and until next time I hope you find time to create with this gorgeous range
