49 and Market Layout - Forever and Ever & You Have My Heart

Hello

The next 2 pages feature the heart frames from the 49 and Market ARToptions Rouge Ephemera Bits. I have used many layers of tickets and tags sandwiched in between the Fabscraps papers. I loved that there is a co-ordinating circled sentiment for each heart frame!

I have also created a journaling card pocket tucked in behind the paper layers on every page. In each pocket, I have placed 3 journaling cards - see the memories card below...

Other papers I used in this album are Stampin' Up 6x6 DSP packs - the above green layer is Mossy Meadow.

Be sure to pop back in again soon for the next 2 pages, we are halfway there!

Friendly Hello #2 - Stampin'up

 Hello

This is a second set of cards featuring Friendly Hello stamps and papers from Stampin'up.

Two of the papers were layered on to the card base. Three scalloped squares were die cut from coloured card and the negative piece was then embossed, and added to the card front. The same square die was used to cut images from a third piece of the papers, and white card. A smaller square was die cut from another paper and layered on to the white piece. Colour was added to the paper squares before inlaying to the design. The white square was mounted at an angle and a bow attached.

Strips of two of the different papers were joined then wrapped with ribbon and layered on to the card front. Small squares were die cut from the bird paper and layered on to the squares die cut from the previous card. These were then added to the card with the one on the right being flat and the other two mounted. The metal love charm was added.

For the floral card the corners of white card and striped paper were punched and layered together on to the card base. Layered labels die was used to cut a section from the green paper and the background colour card. These were layered together and the piece mounted to the front. The coloured flowers were fussy cut from the papers and fixed over the white flowers on the paper. The bow was then added.

 Hello

Continuing on with the next 2 pages from this album using 49 and Markets ARToptions Rouge Ephemera Bits, you will notice my frames are all empty as I have not yet decided the purpose for the album.

The background papers throughout the album are all from a selection of Fabscraps 8x8 Mini Booklets - High Tea, Classic Collection and Heritage Collection 38A. I have had these booklets for quite a while so was very excited to be able to use these here!

I will return soon, with the next 2 pages and more details.

Enjoy your day!
