Hi Everyone, Jo here on the blog today.

Another month almost gone and we are now well and truly into the cooler weather. Perfect time to be inside scrapping up a storm.

Today I have a layout to share with you using the new Ritz Collection.

I love this pic of my dear nan and pop. I have scrapped it before but it is a favourite and I felt these papers went so well with the photo. Here is how I started my layout.

Using the 6 x 6 Evening Cocktail papers I chose 5 different patterned papers and cut them 3.5 inches square. I then matted them all onto white and then black cardstock.

Using the stamp from the Cubic Celebration Stamp and Emboss set I stamped onto my page. I first penciled around where my papers would be.

I then adhered all my square mats down layered over the top of each other.

In this new collection there is a chipboard. I love chipboard! So many ways to glam it up!

Here are a couple of close ups. Peeking out from my cluster here is the Thin Waves chipboard. I have embossed it with some gold embossing powder. I have also added a feather which was cut from the Deco Feather decorative die.

At the bottom of my photo is the Fanned Background chipboard. I used some gold pigment powder mixed with gesso to colour it. I have also tucked into my bottom cluster the Swingers chipboard.

All my flowers I have coloured with pigment powders.
