Welcome back for more Couture Creations inspiration!

Amanda here, & today I am sharing this gorgeous layout with you.......

Love this!

A really pretty page featuring lots of Couture Creations delights,

including the stunning new

Frames n Frills Ornamental Lace Die: Elissa Set CO723963

I can't begin to tell you just how much I LOVE this die set!

Simply stunning!!!

Here's how I created my layout......

Start by trimming the Vintage Rose Garden Paper (12 x 12") into 11 3/4 x 11 3/4" using the fabulous new Couture Creations Trimmer, as shown below.

Using scissor blades, carefully distress paper, and tear in 3 locations (as featured below).

Using the new Frames n Frills Die:

prepare 2 flower bunches in apricot cardstock, & 2 doilies & border frill trims in white cardstock.

Onto 12 x 12" kraft card stock, adhere one flower bunch & one border frill trim so that they will 'peak' through the torn paper. Attach distressed paper, as shown.

Position white doily and milliners lace in top right hand corner, use a 6 x 6" Vintage Rose Garden Paper Pad square to mat the photo and adhere into place. Attach photo.

Working in the lower left corner of your photograph, attach the second doily using

18mm thick foam mounting tape.

This doily will also require the inner circular die from the Frames n Frills die set, as well as the second flower bunch, to be attached to it (see below).

A ribbon and bow complete the doily embellishing. Place the last border frill trim beneath the photo.

Embellish the layout with complimentary coloured blooms, pearl trim, a vintage key and these Denise Boddey designed chipboard from our friends over at Imaginarium Designs:
