Creative Team Layouts

Here Comes the Bride by Claire Apostoloff (CT)
I've used American Crafts, Tinkering Ink and MME papers. I've stamped around the edges with a flourish stamp and then sponged white and pink inks on top to soften it. I layered various punched flowers to make the blooms and added a rose to the centres.The adhered a bow onto the button and mounted onto the end of the bunting.
Beautiful Claire, the simplicity is stunning, yet there is so much to it!  Well done.

I have distressed the edges of the backing patterned paper and have inked these edges and all others, including the photo, with Dye Ink. I have also used this ink to change the colour of the Thickers by smudging over the top.The ink is very subtle Deb and blends in nicely with the ribbon. It brings in another colour and works well against the layers of text and patterned papers.  And I love that the journalling is created with the mini alphas, as there are lots of Collywobbles about that don't really need to read that!! :0)

Thanks girls, great inspiration.

Claire, your layout is stunning. The ink sponging creates such a dreamy feel to the layout, a real wedding feel. Love the tiny flutterbies too
