Lovesong

This stunning kit is filled with Pink Paislee, Fancy Pants and My Minds Eye...

Our sketch this month by Charlotte

This month I scrapped a good friend of mine. 

She has some beautiful photos and they went perfectly with this kit. This is my interpretation of the sketch.

How can you not love these beautiful papers? This month called for my Martha Stewart Heart Punch of course.

The beautiful doily came in our kit and I left it as is. I loved the white. The chipboard is by Gina's Designs and was included in our kits.

I covered mine in gesso and then stamped it with a script stamp and lightly inked the edges.

I used the Spellbinders Rose Creations die for my flowers and I also stamped them with the same script stamp. The doily beneath the "Love You" chipboard is a CottageCutz die "Magnolia Doily"

This month I did some embossing. The frame around the photo and the die cut in the corner under the flowers are embossed. I also added some chipboard from Gina's Designs. The little flourishes were covered in glitter.

The beautiful Prima resin was also in our kit.

Here is a close up of the embossing and glitter covered chipboard.

I added  just a splash of color with drips of pink mists.

I love red. It is my favorite color.

On this layout I used more embossing on my die cuts. 

These beautiful tiny roses were in the kit and I loved using them as sprays around the layout.

More of Gina's Designs chipboard here. I used gesso, ink and embossing on this one.

The diecuts were all embossed and I lightly ran some red distress ink over it.

This is a photo of my niece with my girls. This was taken several years ago. 

I used the Delicate Asters Die from Heartfelt Creations to make my flowers.

My final project is a tag I created for our tag swap at Scraps of Elegance. My trading partner Michelle will be receiving this. :)

The doily in the background is a lasar cut cardstock doily by Ginas Designs. These doilies are just beautiful! I love them!

This kit is truly stunning! I loved every second of creating with this kit. You will too. :)

**I'm sad to say this is my last regular reveal as a designer for Scraps of Elegance. I am continuing on as the Design Team Coordinator but am stepping down as a regular designer for this team. I will continue to design regularly on the Scraps of Darkness side of the clubs going forward.
