Adore you! – Layout by Ezmé Hartman

Hi there dear 49 and Market fans!

Izabella, my sister’s little granddaughter is such a precious little thing! She loves dressing up and have her picture taken. This is one of my favorite pictures of her with her lovely pink flower headband and those big brown eyes. For this layout I used the natural tones of a combination of the Vintage Artistry Naturals and Essentials collections. I added color with elements of the Blush Rub-on Transfers, flowers, watercolor paint and Distress Ink. I wanted to capture the softness of the moment.

To create the background of the layout I used Vintage Artistry: Wallflower as the basis and framed it with Vintage Artistry Everyday: Garden Variety. I trimmed the Wallflower paper to 11,5” x 11,5”and distressed the edges. I adhered it to the Garden Variety paper. I splashed and painted with watercolor paint and distress ink and also added rub-on transfers to add more color and interest.

I chalked the edges of the background frame with distress ink to create more contrast and added more pink rub-on transfers.

There is a butterfly on the paper on the left side and I added green foliage, pink flowers and a butterfly also from the foliage pack as an embellishment collage.

I raised the photo with cardboard and placed it on layers of tabbed frames. The sentiments on the tabs are rub-on transfers, as well as the doily. The small hearts are taken from Wishing Bubbles and Baubles: Blush.

The stitching on the photo is a rub-on transfer from Roughly Sewn Rub-ons in Black. You can also see a little gauze peeping out, as another layer behind the photo.

The main embellishment cluster is created with flowers, foliage, ribbon, Guiney Fowl feathers Blush and Wishing Bubbles. And that is how a neutral layout turned into a very pink layout in the end!
