Hi Eveyone, I thought i would share with you today a double layout that I created for a recent class that I taught here in Brisbane.

I love the Bohemian Bouquet collection however this time I wanted to nicely match the papers to the photos series that I had and for this layout I wanted to use a couple of the 'other side' patterned papers from the 12x12" paper pad.

I love the blue and white patterns in the paper pad so made blue the feature colour of my layout with a small pop of bright pink.


My layout used the damask blue and white patterned paper as well as the blue and white leaf paper.  I also chose the piece that had the yellow sunflowers around the outside.  I cut out the middle where the large white and blue damask was.
All three patterned papers became my layers papers.


My two pages also incorporated embossed cardstock.  For the white embossed piece I took a matching blue ink pad and lightly dragged it across the cardstock so the ink only took on the raised parts. On the pink embossed cardstock I used a sanding block to lightly bring out the pattern more.


For both my white and blue die cuts, I backed them with alternate colours.  I also inked all my patterned papers with the matching blue ink so soften the edges. I also did this around both the layout base cardstock.

I love little clusters of flowers and embellishments and used several across the double page.

My love for the Go Press and Foil machine continues and I hot foiled my chipboard in Sea Breeze Mirror Finish blue and the little camera that comes with the title chipboard piece I hot foiled in Pink Mirror Finish.


Little focal point were put across the pages including matted banners and tabs and also two little pieces from the paper pads, the Love square on the left side and the little wording on the right side.


I used some of the gorgeous chipboard from the Bohemian Bouquet collection, the Geo Border, and also from the 1st release of chipboard from Couture Creations, the title Capturing the Moment which also has the cute little camera.


All photos and were matted on white cardstock to help them pop.  A couple were then mounted on foam tape to add more depth to the page.
