Today, I thought I would share a layout using some photos I have been meaning to scrap since last spring. The colors in the new Valise Paper line really matched these photos perfectly! (**Please note that the photos came out a bit 'yellow'. The paper is truly a kraft color with teals and greens. The close-up shots show the original colors much better than the photo of the whole layout.)
Papers: Memory Box Bill of Sale, Keepsake, and Valise
Memory Box Stamps: Cocoa Bean Butterly C1714
Stamp Ink: Tim Holtz Distress Ink black soot
Embellishments: Memory Box classic scallop die, Prima flower, Heidi Swapp chipboard alpha, Zva Creative pearl flourish, Recollections leaves, Glossy Accents, sewing machine
I started out with a 12x12 sheet of the 'Bill of Sale' paper and cut it down to 8x8 since that's the page size that I scrap. I then matted the photos on papers from the 6x6 Valise paper pack. After mounting and placing the photos, I stamped the Cocoa Bean Butterfly stamp {C1714} several times just for fun. I then used the Classic Scallop die to create a border at the bottom using the same paper I used for matting. The cute journaling tag I cut from a 12x12 sheet of the Keepsake paper. To create the clocks, I punched out two clocks from the clock paper also in the 6x6 Valise paper pack. I covered them in Glossy Accents to look like a glass face over the clocks. To finish, I added stitching, pearls, a flower, and leaves.
These really are great papers. I hope you will give them a try along with the new dies next time you paper craft! You won't be disappointed! Have a great day ahead!
