So in Love with You ~ Spring Pastels

Hello Mary here today to share a layout created with the A4 Spring Pastels  Range

So in Love with You

The inspiration for my page started with the gorgeous Vintage Print on Vellum Image .I received it in the last Package of DT goodies and I was instantly drawn to the colours and then the sentiment ~ So in Love with You inspired me to create another page for my Daughters wedding album and how divine is the Spring Pastel PP !

I used the "Love" sentiment from the Cut and Create sheet which I shaded with mauve ink and also added the elegant lady from a Cut and Create sheet at the side of my photo.

In amongst the flowers I have made a bow with sheer ribbon and also placed Dodo vine wire and a couple of fussy cut flowers from the cut and create sheet 

I was really happy with how this layout turned out.
And because I hate to waste anything and had some paint left on my palette whilst doing a project I created a tag with a beautiful image from the Vintage Beauties Cut and Create Sheet along with the Dream Sentiment, I can now add this to a layout or a card.
You can find so many beautiful products at Megs Store for all your creating needs.

Thank You for calling by
Happy Creating

A Good Friend Knows all your best Stories

Hello Mary here to share another layout for my daughters wedding album . I also created the layout for a challenge at Artastic where the theme is Girls Only. You can view the story on my blog 

To create the layout I have combined two ranges . I have used the 12 x 12 Paper from the Lavande Range as my base and to it I added the A4 size Spring Pastels Range . I really liked how the two combined created a lovely pastel palette that are also the colours in the bouquets .

I have fussy cut the flowers and Laugh images from the Cut and Create Papers and added some pink sheer ribbon from Megs Store as well.

I love the soft delicate feel the Hydrangea petals falling down the page give which I have also fussy cut from the Shabby Chic cut and create sheet.

Also sharing a card made with the Shabby Chic Background card pack paper. You receive 12 backgrounds in the pack , 2 of each design . Makes card making so easy

I have used one of the new dies in the shop , the wildflower die ( the doily die is from my own stash) Lace from Megs shop and the Lilac and butterfly images fussy cut from the Shabby Chic  cut and create sheet 
Meg has a load of new product in the store at the moment, fabulous dies and so much more .
I hope you take the time to pop over and check them out.

MEMORY JOURNAL

Hello Mary here to share a little memory journal I created for a Penfriend who lost her Grandmother last year.
To create the journal I have used Papers from several of Megs Gardens ranges. I have used Rose Quarts, Parisian Gardens, Water colour in Blue and Spring Pastels along with images from the Cut and Create ranges. That is the beauty of Megs papers , they all work so well together. The post is photo heavy, so maybe grab a cuppa and sit back and hopefully enjoy.

I have created a little pocket for my friend to pop maybe recipes of her Grandmothers, little sayings or memorabilia

another little pocket for notes and I have left room for Photos and journalling on most of the pages

I have used Lace from Megs Store to hold some journal cards in place.

I have tucked journal cards inside the envelope for writing down thoughts and added Lavender mesh ribbon for texture .

I have left an opening in the heart shape to slip a tag inside

another pocket for tags and memorabilia

and the final page has a frame to slide a photo in .

I hope you have enjoyed calling by and for all these gorgeous papers and embellishments and so much more pop over to Megs Store 
Happy Creating

'LOVE'

Hello Bloggers

Video link:  "LOVE" mini album

A mini album designed to be 'just pretty' - lots of lace, vintage trinkets & ladies.  But is can also have lots of space for photos & memories by replacing some of the ephemera.
Paper collection used is the Spring Pastels Collection - lots of very pretty pastels which are so easy to use.
Cream cardstock & a deep shade of lavender for the cover

I also played with mounting some of the ephemera on pastel colours in order to highlight some of the papers.  The majority of pages were Z-shaped to give lots of room for embellishing.

Bye for now
Meg
