Snow White



Little Girl's Mum usually buys me a random selection of 12 x 12 papers for Christmas - this is one from a couple of years ago which I thought I would never use. As it happens, the paper is double sided, and while I was matching papers to photos I found that each side went perfectly with a different set of pictures! What to do.......?

I cut out a scalloped circle shape from the centre and put the cut out piece to one side, to use with the other photos. Then I cut a plain circle out of bazzill swiss dot in red (can't remember the exact colour name). The photos were positioned and mounted on foam tape, then I put pearls around the circle.

The title is robo-cut (font: Birmingham) in the same red, but when I laid it out, it didn't look quite right, so I cut it in green as well and offset the red over the green for a shadow effect. Still it needed something more, so I die-cut a long swirl, split it into two, then placed flowers over it, with some gems for the centres.

  2. What a cute little drama queen. Reminds me of my grand-daughter... I don't think she wore anything BUT a costume from ages 3 to about 8! She was a ballerina, Disney princesses, Spanish princess, fairy, and anything else that she fancied.

  3. I just love this layout - the colours are perfect together and the photos just pop off the page. And the layered title in red and green goes so well with everything. It's one of the prettiest layouts I've seen in a while - great job!
