True Love by Jo Piccirilli

Wow we are now into another month! I was reminded a couple of weeks ago just how close to Christmas we are getting by receiving a lovely box of products from Couture Creations. Yep amongst all the new dies there was lots of Christmas embossing folders.

I couldn't get my head around Christmas just yet so I have had a play with some of the new dies from the Sophia range. Oh my there are some lovely products in this new release!

Anyway here is my layout

I have used 2 of the new dies on this layout. Ferretti, which is the flourish under the embossed heart at the bottom. This is a lovely big flourish. Perfect for scrap pages and big enough to cut in half and not loose any of the effect.

The other die I used was the Bloch. This is the row of tulips. How cute! I inked the bottom of it and then embossed it with one of the new Christmas embossing folders. The pattern wasn't too Christmassy so it worked perfectly.

Here is how I made the lacy border at the top and bottom

I cut out my Tattered Lace die from the Fantasia collection
