2.  Coloring (colouring) Papers

Do you want to do some colouring but are daunted by the Colouring Books & their elaborate designs?  Take your papercrafting to another dimension. I was too & decided to do something totally different.

Alice in Wonderland was my 1st choice (more on the drawing board).  There are 8 papers with Alice images, quotes & words.  She does not have to have the traditional blue dress - try another colour; make her steampunk; do some grunge or make her frilly & shabby chic! 

Then what to do with them?  Create a mini book with the quotes & tags;  use them on cards or create a collage with or without mixed media; a brag book is perfect; use on a scrapbook page

Have a look at the papers:

  http://megsgarden.com/contents/en-us/d741.html

  3.  New Embellishments

Three new cream laces

Satin floral ribbon lace - ignore the background paper

Cream cotton lace 12mm

Cream cotton lace 18mm

Enjoy creating

The new collection: Forgotten Meadows

Hello creative readers.

Today I want to talk about the new collection at Meg's Garden called Forgotten Meadows that I designed.

The inspiration for the collection comes from one of my favourite movies that I watch a few times a year. Howards End (1992) starring Emma Thompson, Anthony Hopkins and Vanessa Redgraves.

Set at the beginning of the 20th century in England. Vanessa Redgraves play the wife of a successful businessman who is very sick, and wants dearly to show her family home Howards End to her new friend played by Emma Thompson.  The part that inspired the collection was something Vanessa Redgraves said about the Howards End cottage. " It's in the morning my house looks most beautiful." This is because in the film the cottage is surrounded by meadows of grass and flowers and the way the morning sunlight hit the meadows is just beautiful.

My direction for this collection was a softer romantic feeling with a very subtle vintage aged look. I hope you like it and find it as inspiring as I was to make it. The collection is available in the 12 in single side papers, the mini/cardmakers pack, and a book kit as a digital download or printed medium.
So, head over to the webstore and buy your self the new collection and happy crafting!

A Gentlemen Collection by Kerry-Jean Watson

Hello all you crafty bloggers out there. 

I recently created The Gentlemen Collection for Meg's Garden.

I was looking for a grungy vintage masculine paper collection but I couldn't find what I was wanting, so I decided to create one. 

My grandfather who was born in 1905, and I have many old photos of him as a young man in the 1920'2 and 30's. I wanted a collection that would compliment the world around him in those times, where things weren't smooth and perfect, but ages and textured and had the weight of having been around for a long time. 

      

As there were no televisions in those days people would entertain themselves by writing letter or in journals and most of all travel. Whether it was over seas or a days trip somewhere, exploration was a large part of life back then for some. 

With these things being my inspiration and direction I looked at working with texture and the look of  aged paper. I found some wonderful masculine vintage graphics to include in the designs, the old Automobile is one of my favourites. 

I have also become rather enamored with element pages with small graphics that can been cut out and used in layouts and cards.  I went looking for some Cabinet Cards which were popular in the 1870 to add to the Ephemera page along with some other appropriate graphics. 

      

The collection can be found over at Meg's Garden HERE.

I hope you like the collection and have some fantastic ideas for using it.
