2012 Artisan Award Winner Blog Hop - Project 7

 

 

Hi and welcome to my blog! 

We're winding up the Artisan Blog Hop this week but there's still more to come!

If you've come from Amy Bollman's blog you're in the right place. I absolutely love the colors and textures she used in her vibrant layout yesterday. Such handsome and precious boys, too!

I'm sharing an hybrid 8-1/2 x 11" page with you today. By hybrid I mean that I began with digital elements and added traditional elements. I knew right from the start that I wanted one of my Artisan creations to feature the trendy color combo of yellow and gray. I usually combine this duo with lots of white for a bright look, but went a different direction for this project. I kept it smoky and used a black and white photo.

The journalling was done with My Digital Studio and there's a flourish printed underneath the path of butterflies from the Autumn Elements Brushed Stamp Set. I used various patterned papers for the butterflies. The title is from Wedding Words Stamp Brush Set printed on Whisper White card stock.

I'll list my supplies below. Please don't hesitate to ask any questions in my comment box. 

The project Erica Cerwin posted yesterday is my absolute favorite of all her creations! What can be cuter than watermelon slices with scalloped borders and tiny hearts inside? Peek to see what she has for you today...

What a beautiful page! I love how the butterflies add a soft look. I also like how you added your title: a combination of separate letters and the Apothecary Framelits with stamping. Nice picture, too.
