You're Amazing (heart)

Last week I shared an amazing double page layout featuring the Prized Peony suite and I am still having fun creating with it! This was the page my scrapbook class made this week. Once a week, last Wednesday of the month, I have a group of gals come to make a single page layout. They had requested doing some colouring with the Stampin’ Blends and I feel like this bundle just has so many options. Pairing it with the scripty soft font of the Ornate Thanks stamp set was a perfect match along with the Beautiful World stamp set.

I really love this soft color palette that was inspired by the Peony DSP and having my oldest son in the photo. I wanted this page to feel soft and masculine at same time. No one ever said you can’t use flowers with boys!

I started by embossing some of the mid sized peony blooms on the Whisper White background with white embossing powder. The effect is soft and subtle and draws your eye from the top of the page down.

Sometimes a background doesn’t need much, but I always find it needs something!

Embossing such an easy way to add detail to your projects.

I really love how the Prized Peony dies include outline dies, dies to make a 3 D flower and the scalloped embossed edge piece is perfection. I used it here to bring in that touch of blue with Seaside Spray. I feel this blue has a bit of a grey undertone so it worked perfectly on this project. I coloured the peonies in Seaside Spray, Petal Pink and Old Olive Stampin’ Blends.

I used the Grey Granite 1/4 shimmer ribbon and the Seaside Spray 1/4 metallic ribbon to draw interest and attention to the sentiment. I love our metallic pearls and they helped add an elegant feel to this page.

The lace detail is from the Fabulous Florals dies and worked so perfectly with this page!

I love this little corner at the right hand top of the page. I stamped the little background in Smoky Slate and cut one of the cute stitched shapes from the Hippo & Friends dies in the same color. I trimmed it down in half and added the small peony and You’re Amazing. Sometimes it really is all in the details!

I hope you love this page as much as I do! I absolutely LOVE to scrapbook and feel so blessed to have this platform to share my creations with you! Please feel free to shop with me or leave me a comment! I love to see them in my Inbox!
