It's mid month reveal team at SATW again and this month we had a beautiful Mood Board designed by the talented Tusia Lech to work with.
I love the colors in Maja Designs Crea Diem line and used those papers for this layout. I also used a large chipboard from Dusty Attic called Iby Corners (DA 1018B).
I actually traced all the leaves onto a green sheet of paper and cut them out. Once glued on I went around the edges with a darker green to help them stand out more. A little drywall tape for texture and the butterflies are from a mask I used (Mini Specimens) from TCW. I also added another Dusty Attic chippie in the form of butterlflies (Flutterbies #3 DA0766). I stamped them with embossing ink then added Geranium Coral embossing powder.
A close-up of my flower cluster. Some are handmade and some are from my Prima stash. I backed them with a new Diecut I got from the Funkie Junkie store called Quinn made my Memory Box. Also hand stitched around the page.
A better view of the masking and diecuts.
The title is also from Dusty Attic and describes the photo to a T! I love this shot of my eldest daughter Ashley and her two girls Lilly and Emily. A little stamping done with a brick wall stamp from I don't remember where lol! I also punched out a bunch of hydrangea flowers and glued them along the vine along the page then added a drop of liquid pearls in the middle. I love how Maja Design makes the tags on the bottoms of their papers usable! I just tucked the little Crea diem tag under the title for added effect.
The last photo is another close-up of the vine and flowers. I loved working with the colors of this Mood Board and hope you give it a try! here are the rules:
