Awesome Foursome

Hi Everyone,

I was inspired by the large and beautiful single flowers featured in the Cut & Create sheets, I gathered all my left-over bits and pieces and used them to make four simple but stunning cards.

The Cut & Create flowers are easy to trim around and mount - I then layered with laces, ribbon tied into bows, bling, pearls and paper flowers.

Spoilt for choice in the French Roses collection, I selected a background paper with delicate pinks to feature the bold blood red hues and a muted cream paper to tone with one exquisite ivory bud. 

Finally, to make a decision on a sentiment! French Roses has so many evocative and whimsical words and phrases with delightful fonts to pick from. 

This collection has been a joy to work with.

Hello.

 I have had fun making teacups on cards with Megs newest papers.

The card is larger then my normal cards by I had so many goodies that were perfect for the card it just couldn't be a small card. The cups are 3D with a cute tea bag tag from one cup. I decorated the cups with lace and pearls.

Thanks for taking the time to look at my latest card.

SHADES OF GREEN COLLECTION LAYOUT WITH GATE FOLD CARD & BOOKMARK

Hello everyone,

Firstly, I am here to today to share with you how you can use the Shades of Green Collection 5x7 pack to form a special layout.

I have joined 4 pages, together with a bit of fussy cutting.

The cut and create sheets are fantastic with beautiful images.

And here is the final result.  I did 'tea soaked' the wording.  Meg's Garden paper is nice and strong for this procedure.

Next I was playing around with a 'Gate Fold' card and the Shades of Green Collection.  This collection has beautiful images to suit any type of card that you wish to make.
I tend not to throw anything out :) and used the Shades of Green leftover die cut to encircle the gorgeous flower and clock image.

I then used the cut and create lady image to form a Bookmark to insert in the little pocket that I made.

Back view, you can either  have it as a bookmark or a space to write your sentiment on.

Finally here is the closed card.

Thanks for taking the time to view and be sure to check out these beautiful papers HERE
Until next time.......Happy creating......Liz

Easter eggs by Meredith Hilly

Hello everyone.

I would like to show you the Easter eggs I made using Megs Garden embellishments and papers.

I used duck eggs as they are larger but chook eggs can be used instead.

After blowing the egg yolk out I painted this egg with a moss green paint and then a coat of crinkle crackle paint. I used toilet rolls as frame work for all of my Easter eggs stands. Decorating the roll in different ways.

  

This velvet flower was the perfect colour for my egg.

This lovely egg I painted first. After drying I cut out pictures and scrunched them into balls. There are so many pictures you can choose from at Megs garden to cut out. Clocks , flowers , ladies. The possibilities are endless. The scrunching breaks down the paper fibre making it easier to glue onto a curve surface. Then using wood glue mixed with water I softened the paper. Gentle smoothing the paper onto the egg. Don't over work the paper as it will loose the picture and colour.

While the eggs has the wood glue mixture on it you can attach lace or ribbon to the egg.

When the egg is dry the hole used to blow the egg can be used as a anchor for flowers and leaves.

I did the same process with this egg. Glitter works great on the flower and pictures.



Adding pearls and small embellishments like dragon flies makes the egg more detailed.



The base of this egg stand was painted with pink paint and I added lace with pearls drops. I cut up the round silver trim ribbon to use  for smaller decorations. Don't ever be afraid to cut off small portions of lace and ribbon. They make wonderful embellishments.

And now for the boys.  I  choose my photos to cut out from  Alchemy 101 papers. I followed the same process as above but when the egg was dried I coated it with crinkle crackle. When this layer dried I used a dark coloured ink pad to wipe over the egg. This will go into the cracks. Before the ink dries wipe of excess with a tissue.

This egg I did not paint. I stamped it with stamps. You will need to roll the egg along the stamps to get most of the image on the stamp.

Again I used a toilet roll and painted it. Attaching the ribbon with the very cute cog and frog.

I hope you enjoyed this post as much as I did making the eggs. There is so much to be created using megs garden supplies on your very own Easter egg. Give it a try. Makes a lovely gift at Easter time without the calories.
