Some of my new Basic Grey order has arrived! 'Ambrosia' & 'Eva' :) It was originally supposed to be early August for the shipment, but things were delayed somehow, so i only received it today!! it was worth the wait, the patterns and colours are absolutely gorgeous!!
My design today uses some paper from the wonderful 'Ambrosia' collection. Vibrant reds and oranges, along with more muted neutrals.... Fabulous!
I've used Laura's current sketch, for the layout, and the requirement for some stitching over at Papertake Weekly. I decided to hand stitch a border in a rich orange to match the papers :)
The other materials used are a page from Making Memories 5th Avenue journaling pad, onto which i've added a butterfly cut with my Cricut machine and my newest cartridge 'Home Accents'. The rub-on is also Basic Grey, with a little piece of trim from my stash!
Thanks for your visit, enjoy your day! :)
This is beautiful Carol. Love your new BG papers and your stitching is great.
ReplyDeleteReally pretty love the papers and the stitching. I see that you are from Bedford. I used to live in Elstow before I moved to Ireland. Probably passed each other in Tesco or Town :)
