49 and Market "Treasure"

Hello there!! Who says that grunge has to be bold??  Not me. I softened up the bold and beautiful papers from the Vintage Remnants paper collection with lovely flowers from different collections. And with the cut outs and extra scrap pieces from the background papers, I created some rolled roses to tuck in between the leaves and flowers. I edges the rolled roses in ink, dipped the edges in glue and rolled them in some diamond dust for sparkle. I simply created a garden cluster around the framed photo.

I love the archival board. Using paint, I watered it down a bit and created an ombre effect using the more concentrated paint on the tops. For the corner cluster, I mixed paper rolled roses, flowers and pieces of Laser Cut Shapes. The butterflies were printed on cardstock and cut out in different sizes. I scattered them around the page.

I die cut leaves and vines, colored them with sprays, and tucked them under and around the beautiful flowers. I love mixing the flowers from the different collections. They blend together so beautifully. I created the rolled roses out of the scrap paper that was left over from background paper. I dipped them in a little bit of glue, then into Diamond Dust for glisten and glitter. I added wishing bubbles to the centers. Save those scraps!!

I used the flower clusters to frame the photo. I popped the frames up from the background, by die cutting 2 frames and layering one on top of the other. This gives the whole layout some depth.

Here is the closeup showing the 2 frames layered. I used some small pieces of corrugated cardboard in between the frames, then attached it to the background.
