Here is the page I'm sharing this week! This page came together so well... probably because it is based on a sketch by Rochelle Spears, her sketches are beyond fabulous! I switched a few of the pictures up a little to accomodate what I had, the sketch called for 3 vertical pictures but I kept most of her elements! Here is what I came up with.
These pictures where taken last week when we were heading out to a wedding. I figured since we were all dressed up it was the perfect time to take a family photo... as you can see it isn't a very easy task to get a group of 3 looking happy and staring in the camera! It took alot of shots to get to a usable picture so I decided to share 2 of the unusable ones as well! LOL! Of course this is me, my darling daughter and my sweet boyfriend! The circle was punched using a corner punch and a technique that was shown by our very own Lisa Gregory, here is a
link to the awesome video tutorial she made for the technique... I used a pan lid to draw and cut out my circle... nothing high tech here! Here is a close up of the title block... unfortunatly I couldn't get it to photograph right but it turned out really pretty and shows up well in real life.
I filled in some of the blank space with a portion one of the bouquet stamp to get the little flower at the bottom, I colored it with B00 which matched my ink perfectly! I think this sentiment makes a perfect title! Here is a closer look at the heart stamp that I colored in with copics... I glazed the flowers with stickles! In my opinion every good page needs a little sparkle!
And of course no project ever seems complete without a flower cluster! I love the look of the vellum mixed with the cardstock! Such a pretty combo in my opinion! The brads and the crystal swirls are also from HC! I love that they carry all these little embellies to make each project extra special!
Here is where I am playing this week
