Canvas For Scrapki-Wyzwaniowo October Challenge

I came across a blog  Scrapki-Wyzwaniowo and loved the idea behind their October Challenge, "In My Head."  My mind is cluttered with so many things, much of which I store away and some that are   continually on my mind.  Some thoughts are happy and cheerful, and some are sad and dark.  Made me think of a book, with chapters full of  twists and turns . . . so much like my life right now.  So I decided to create a canvas to some what resemble a book, with lots of pages, some happy and colorful and some sad and dark.

Scrapki-Wyzwaniowo's October Challenge:

Lots and lots of layering with papers from Marion Smith Designs Motley and Mad Tea Party Collections, and bits and pieces of mixed media.  Here are a few closeups:

Love Letters

Hi everyone,  here today to share a layout I created using some beautiful lace and flowers from the Tresors de Luxe Etsy store.  

I've enjoyed lately working with vintage papers by Marion Smith Designs.  Here I have used papers from the Motley collection along with some White Venice Lace and Multi Colored Chiffon flowers from the Tresors de Luxe store.

Tucked beneath layers of papers is some of the beautiful Venice Lace that I painted with some watercolor paint.

Here I have used the same lace but added some color!  Isn't it pretty?!?!

A beautiful cluster of flowers and embellishment including Multi Colored Chiffon flowers found in the store.

Exciting News To Share And A Canvas Too!

I'm  excited to announce that I have joined the design team at 
Tresors de Luxe.  It's a designer's dream to be able to create with the beautiful laces, flowers and embellishments from their store!

My first project is a canvas I created using papers from Marion Smith's Motley and Mad Tea Party collections along with some masking, inking, misting and stamping.

I cut apart some of the Venice Lace from the store (LA-019) and misted it to give it an aged look.

I added some of the Venice Lace (LA-019) under a Shabby Chic flower embellishment (FL-021), and laid both on top of a beautiful Pink Fabric Flower (FL-054).
