Nothing More Adorable by Tina Ollett

Hi and welcome back 49 and Market friends.
Tina here back with you to share a project using the beautiful Vintage Artistry Blush. As mostly all of you will know I really don’t accommodate well with bright vibrant colours but I am always up for a challenge. Also, I decided to use multiple photos of my youngest quite some time back throwing an awesome tantrum. For whatever reason at the time I took photos. I don’t really remember why, but I can assure you she would not have been hurt, but rather just having a moment, something that happens to each and everyone of us at some point in life. So me being me I will use this to create a story with the photos.

To create the page I have used the “Vintage Artistry Blush” 12 x 12 collection pack. Firstly I tore the backer card along with the paper titled “Soaring” that was also torn. I placed Soaring over the top of the Backer Card and adhered them together. I then went to work adding my photos to the backs of each of the file frames from the Laser Cut sheet of the collection pack.

There are so many pieces in this that I went to work and removed them all to make embellishing easier. Once the photo frames were in place I created a wreath using some garden pine fibers that I picked up at the sewing store a little while back. These pieces were all glued into a circular framework and placed on the background page around the photos.

The fun part was adding in layers of the Laser Cuts pieces. Each was sanded lightly around the edges and popped up on foam tapes. Among these laser cuts, I also added in a pack of the Garden Petals in Sea Glass to break up the pink a little. These two colours together I think are really quite pretty.

I also added in some paper clay moulds to give my project more structure. Some of the laser cuts were cut down smaller to go further around the layout.

To help complete my project I added in some sections of lace and a few silver flower pearls, and lastly, I dressed some of the flower centers and butterflies with StarDust Stickles to help it all sparkle.
