BasicGrey Lemonade

I just fell in love with this new basic grey paper collection. I was sent some of the papers, plus the sticker die cuts and I've acheived two layout using a lot of paper folding!



CUTE AS A BUTTON

steps

1 start off by cutting two strips of paper as shown placing them to the left hand side of the card stock

2 add a third strip to the right hand side of the card stock and place two identical photos on top as shown

3 using a crafters stitching template stitch two circles one overlapping the photos and the other about 4 cms wider

4 cut about four strips of the green paper about 1cm and pleat around the circle using your stitching as a guide line

5 then go round this circle using buttons as shown

6 repeat the pleating of the patterned paper on the outside of the circle this time add bobble ribbon to the inside as shown

7 finish the layout adding the title.




PUCKER UP


steps

1 cut three strips of patterned papers and layer onto card stock as shown

2 using the sticker flourish place to the left hand side of the card stock as shown using 3d foam pads for more dimension add two strips of ribbon

3 use 3d foam pads to raise your photo then place this over the flourish

4 add title and a few brads using 3d gel pen go around your photo and over your lettering for more detail

5 finish off by making the two paper folded flowers for the right hand side of the photo.
