Beautiful by Brenda Caldow

Welcome to Meg's Garden, I would like to share with you my first post for 2017 using the very beautiful Parisian Gardens patterned papers. I hope that your Christmas and New Season have been filled with love and joy and that each and everyone of you have had the safest of festive seasons. 

Now for my page....Each time I think Meg has come up with the most beautiful and perfect paper range she brings to us another. Such beautiful papers and embellishments are in store and ready to be shipped. Much more than just what I have to show you today. 

These are the Parisian Gardens Patterned Papers.

This is the sheet I chose to use on my page.

Now for my page of my sweet friend Malissa who is as beautiful as these papers.

I created the page on black Cardstock and started by spraying the page with Tim Holtz air brush and Distress Markers. I then sat the cardstock aside and I fussy cut the purple rose, butterfly, lady/clock and tag from the papers. I also mounted the photo on the same patterned paper. 

It was then time to chose my embellishments and start to put my page together. 

The lace is Antique Cream Nylon Lace and it is so beautiful. It also comes in a stunning soft pink as well but I loved the cream. I used the filigree long oval vintage trinket with the stunning large brass bee and the butterfly in filigree.

I hope you have enjoyed looking at my page and please keep scrolling down and having a look at the other stunning creations from the design team. Also please call to the store for any of the beautiful papers or products we use. There are always new things coming in and I know you will love them. 

Please keep calling back because the Design Team have so much more to show you.  

Happy crafting and I hope 2017 is a wonderful loved filled year for you and all your loved ones.

Forgotten Meadows Book Pages - Mini Album using Japanese Bookbinding method.

Mini Album using Meg’s Garden Vintage Book Papers

21/03/2017 ~ BARBARA ~ EDIT

Hi everyone,

Today I’m sharing a small album I created using Meg’s Garden Vintage Book Papers. This collection is called “Forgotten Meadows.”

The album is bound using a simple Japanese Bookbinding system.  I will be adding some photographs and poetry to the pages plus more of the details from the cut apart papers included with the collection. This album does not allow for lots of dimensional elements as it is quite flat.  It is perfect for photographs etc.

For a tutorial on the Bookbinding system that I have used go to: Japanese Bookbinding 101 Note: I have used the same system with three holes instead of four.  

Thanks for stopping by today

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.
