2 cards with Megs Garden French Roses collection | Marina Gridasova

Hello ladies and gents! Marina is here again with cards from Megs Garden newest French Roses collection.
First I fussy-cutted all the elements from ephemera sheets (and flowers and butterflies are my favs)))))
The first one is with the butterflies
 details:

 The second one is with the flowers
 some close-ups:


 Rose sterm is a part of the flower from previous card - it was too long so I cutted it and used here as accent. Black fan was perfect to create contrast composition.
Hope I can inspire you to create something beautiful with our products! )))
Have a great day!

HOW DOES YOUR GARDENS GROW

Hi Everyone

I’m Jacky and I’m one of the new design team members and I’m really excited to be here. I’ve been a customer of Meg’s Garden for a very long time. Her store was always one of my first visits at the Stitches and Craft shows.

Anyway on to my first Blog post... I’ve made a BIG tag (8x4) from some blue Cardstock and have done some ink blending on white cardstock at the bottom of the tag to resemble a grassy field.... I’ve then used Megs PAPER FLOWERS on wire and attached  them to the tag so they look like they are growing. I’ve then used one of the titles from the SPRING FLOWER CLICK and CREATE, the words are beautiful and I just love the font! These titles print on white but you can easily use your inks or chalks to customise them or even print on coloured paper.

Till next time, happy making stuff

Jacky

Shabby Chic Explosion Box






Hello everyone! I hope that yo are having a wonderful week. Today I am sharing a project that I have created using  the French Roses Collection from Megs Garden.


 I decided to create an explosion box, as I wanted to feature the ephemera (cut and create elements of the collection), lace and also beautiful flowers that coordinate so beautifully with this collection.

The centrepiece of my project is the cake. It features lace, pearls and flowers from Megs Garden.
On all of my panels, I used a circular Marianne Design die as my base and built up from it. Here I added a clock ephemera element as my focal image and added some flowers and a butterfly.





 Adding a flourish and flowers adds a softness to each page and an overall cohesion to the panels.

When selecting my images, I selected pairs...two florals and two non florals...for balance.

Supplies:

Megs Garden French Roses
Bundle Pinks Shabby Chic




Thanks so much for stopping by!

Love, Always

Hi Everyone,


The emotive sentiment was the inspiration for this card (and my love for all things Over The Top!) Just look at the beautiful lady's eyes -  love and purity. Both are cut from Meg's Cut & Create pages from the new French Roses Collection.



As well as my love for O.T.T, I also love layering on cards - adding height and focal impact. For this card, layering was made easy with the extensive choice of delicate patterned papers. 


The paper flowers - not quite pink, and not quite apricot, tone perfectly with the papers for added detail and embellishments. Tucked around them, I have ribbon bows, feathers and bling.


And now for the O.T.T moment.. a piece of pearl costume jewellery! It sits atop of a Cut & Create design, finishing the card with a bling!


The French Roses Collection is a masterpiece of beautiful papers, thoughtful colour selection and heartfelt choice of ephemera.

A collage of French Roses

Hello everyone & welcome,

Today I would love to share with you two cards that I have created with these beautiful patterned papers called French Rose available from Meg's Garden online store.
Each card is a collage of beautiful images from the cut & create sheets. I have distressed & inked each piece. Lots of layers, plus some lace, bows, flowers & self-adhesive pearls complement each card. Pretty feminine cards. Easy to create. Each card is in soft muted colours. I think these cards would be lovely for Mother's Day.
Until next time.
Thanks so much for stopping by.
Have a wonderful day & happy creating.

Smile

Hi Everyone,

Doesn't Meg's new collection French Roses just make you 'smile'? Full of stunning flowers - so real they are just picked from the garden - and pastel colours, there is definitely something for all card makers and crafters alike in this collection.  

Today I have another card for you, using one of the beautiful ladies from the collection's Cut & Create pages as my focal feature, and also a sentiment from the same sheet. 



One thing I love about the Cut & Create sheets is that there is always sufficient room around each image or sentiment to allow for die cutting it out - as I have done below.


Taking colour inspiration from the Cut & Create design, I used paper from French Roses and embossed using a complimenting embossing folder. Using the same nesting die cuts, from another of Meg's papers I cut a slightly larger shape to mount the beautiful lady onto.


Clustered is an assortment of both paper and fabric flowers, pearl bling and finished off with glossy droplets on the large flower.
As always, I have inked over the raised embossed area and around all my edges.


Hope you are enjoying the new collection as much as I am!

Take Care,
Julia
