Hi there! Today I would like to share w/ you a page that I made by mistake! I thought that I had signed up for a Swirlydoos Round Robin Scrapbook Layout challenge, but I only signed up for the card challenge! HELLO! Clearly, I have too much on my mind if I can't remember what the heck I signed up for! OMG!
So, anyway, now Elizabeth has 2 pages done for her scrapbook! Whoo hoo!
So, how did I make this page? Well, the actual challenge called for pairs, or even numbered elements. I've been doing 1 picture pages, so this was a challenge all in itself having to use 2 pictures!
So, I took the main paper layer and laid a swirly template over it and painted modeling paste all over it w/ my finger. I let it dry, and then took a green gelato and water and a paint brush and painted the swirls that looked like stems. Then I took the Guava gelato and colored right on the flowers. I took a wet paintbrush and made sure to cover all of each flower. All of the little dots that were a part of the template, I have covered w/ pearls.
I added two borders, and two pieces per border. Burlap and lace, and then lace and some pink stuff that I received in a kit a while ago. The Summer Sun yellow flowers are carnations from svg.cuts. It's from 3D Flowers Kit Part II. I sprayed the petals w/ Yellow Smooch Spray and Gold Lame` Heidi Swapp spray. Then I just assembled them. The leaves are from My Favorite Things. I sprayed them w/ green Distress spray from Tattered Angels and the Gold Lame`. All of the other flowers are from my Swirly stash.
Have a wonderful day!
Oh my gosh - I can't believe that Elizabeth has gotten so big!! Where does the time go?!! This layout is awesome Erin. I was reading how you did it and I am in awe! Modeling paste? Oh my gosh - so cool!! I love seeing your creativity blossom with this new team, Erin - I've missed you!! XOXO
