Using Patterned Papers as Embellishments

Using Patterned Papers as Embellishments

By Jennifer Gormly

 

Paper collections make it easy to co-ordinate patterned papers for your layouts but sometimes its fun to make up your own combinations. This layout shows how to combine various un-related elements into an effective page. 

 

Using Patterned Papers as Embellishments

 

This layout  was created using Karen Foster Icy Blue Crackle paper from the Karen Foster Blue Paper Pack, Me and My Big Ideas Green Stripe paper, Gold paper and Ecru Brocade paper from American Traditional Moments Paper Pack 12x12, blue cardstock, green cardstock, Creative Imaginations Ocean Dreams Epoxy stickers, shell stamp, small alphabet stickers and Creative Imaginations Stitched Alphabet stickers.

 

Use your Karen Foster Icy Blue Crackle paper for your background. Cut a piece of Ecru Brocade paper measuring approximately 25cm by 16cm and mat with Gold paper. Centre in your page about 8cm from the bottom, but don't stick down yet.

 

Cut a piece of Me and My Big Ideas Green Stripe paper measuring approximately 13cm by 6cm. Tuck behind the bottom left corner of your Ecru Brocade mat and adhere. You can now adhere your Ecru Brocade mat too. Cut a second piece of Green Stripe paper measuring approximately 11.5cm by 14cm adhere towards the top right corner of your page, as shown in the layout above.

 

Mat your two main photos with blue cardstock and a smaller third photo with green cardstock. Cut a journaling box from green cardstock and add journaling. Cut two small swirls from the Ecru Brocade paper. Tuck one behind the top right corner of your first photo and the other behind the top right corner of your second photo. Arrange your photos and journaling box as shown in the layout above and adhere.

 

Use small alphabet stickers and Creative Imaginations Stitched Alphabet stickers to create a title in the bottom right corner of your page, as shown above.

 

Finish off your page by placing Creative Imaginations Ocean Dreams Epoxy stickers around your page, as shown above. When positioning them, try to maintain the balance of your layout. Finally, use brown ink to stamp a shell on Gold paper. Cut out and position above your small photo.
