Sweet as Candy – Layout by Jen Burns

Hello everyone and welcome to my newest page using the amazing Spectrum Sherbet range which suits my gorgeous, happy, sassy, sweet as candy amazing little granddaughter.

I have started with the solids Watermelon paper and machine sewn zig-zag and straight stitch around the edges, while I had my machine out I decided to stitch around the chipboard part of the Strawberry Lemonade Frame sets. The Painted Foundations – Washed paper has been trimmed to 11×11″ and adhered to the background paper.

A section of the butterfly 6×8 paper has been framed in the zig-zag small frame and slipped under the photographs on the left. To add interest I have cut around the orange butterfly and raised its wings. When you do this it makes a hole at the back of your paper so I have added a piece of pink paper as a peek-a-boo backing, then added an Orange Index clip to balance the frame.

On the right-hand side under the layers is a piece of painted corrugated card to which I have added one of the lace 12×12 rub-ons.

I have layered pieces of the ephemera pack together with laser cuts. To add dimension to the elements rub the back on a mouse pad with a pen or tool.

The gorgeous chipboard words and shapes have been added along with the acetate leaves. To finish off my layout I have added an array of the 6×8 rub-on transfers like the stitching, strips, stars, and butterflies. One of the butterflies I have added to clear acetate to give it form and shape like it is flying.
