PRECIOUS MOMENTS ~ A 2 Z SCRAPLETS

Hello ,hello !

Today it is my turn on the blog at A2Z Scraplets. I hope you will pop over to the blog where I have links to the products I have used.


Precious Moments


The Chipboard piece I have used is perfect for my title. "Precious Moments " indeed. This is my Mum and Dad with my daughter Chelsea when she was a little girl. We were celebrating Mum's 70th



I have embossed the top part of the sentiment in pink and the bottom part in purple. I then went over the whole piece with a Wink Of Stella brush, which gives a lovely silver sparkle .

The gorgeous "Cherish" embellishment was made for me by my beautiful friend Bec.



I have also used the A2Z Scraplets Staggered stencil with Texture paste to add some texture to the layout. I shaded it with blue Pan Pastel and then outlined the pattern with a black sharpie , to make it stand out even more.



The lovely blue Metal star was a gift from my Irish Pen friend

The paper is very busy, but I hope I have made it work. I liked the feel of it for the era.
Thank you for calling by, another hot day in Australia again. 
Love, Peace and Kindness

Hi Mary, I hope your day hasn't been too hot.. a bit more pleasant here today with a breeze and cloud cover.. but still humid.. I love all the floral patterns and the textures and special embellies and a very precious photo too..The embossing looks great on your title too... I have air con and I tell you it is really appreciated in the hot weather, it makes all the difference.. but I am not looking forward to our power bill.... have a good day tomorrow!

Ah Mary - I just love to see photos of Grandparents with their little ones. I'm crazy about that background paper and I'm sure if I dug to the bottom of my pile, I would find it's twin. Still love it. The two toned chippie is lovely and the little touch of washi, as well as the texture paste. Beautiful work and a lovely memory recorded for your girl.

A precious photo to scrap. I too have the twin to that piece of paper in my stash. The chippie looks great, as does the staggered stencil work. Just Beautiful Mary. Love it! x
