What a mix .... Natalie May

Hello hello from chilly Adelaide

On this super crisp morning, I want to share a few projects with you.

First of all is  

 "Perfect" 

I adore this photo of Jessica

 (even have it as a canvas on our wall at home)

The color in the photo suited these flowers really well 

and it all came together beautifully.

I used some Cream Paper flowers in 10cm, 7cm and 4cm 

and misted them using Luminarte Pigment Powders and then 

stamped over the flower in Archival Black ink with a script stamp 

to add something a little different.

The Satin Rosette was trimmed down a little to suit as was the 

Tutu Flower - just trimmed a little off the edges with my scissors.

Finally I added in my fave little 1cm Roses in the

 clusters to add a little lift.

This next page is a little arty as well but I wanted to use lots

 of lace & ribbon to keep it feeling soft. 

"You are My Everything"

I had to make a couple of slight colour alterations with this 

page which was super easy.

I used some Heidi Swapp Colour Shine in Amethyst - 

as I used in the layout to change the colour of the lace

 and also the roses - perfect match!

The ribbons and laces were great for this page and I used tape 

and the sewing machine to adhere them to the layout.

I also used some Apple Blossoms, 1cm & 1.5cm Roses and the

 gorgeous vine which I also coloured to match.

For my next page, I was completely influenced by the paper and went

 through my flower stash pulling out everything that matched!

 I was blown away by how many amazing BRIGHT colours 

Green Tara really have and then narrowed it down to just a couple 

of highlight flowers that made the paper POP!

 The Heirloom Flowers in Yellow in the 6.5cm and 4cm size

 look great along with some Hot Pink 2cm roses.

And finally is a set of three cards I taught here in Adelaide at

 Seriously Scrapbooking last weekend.

These cards are all part of my monthly Big Shot Class and the

 Green Tara Roses get used in just about every class I teach!

With this last card, I used the White Azalea but didn't feel the yellow Stamen

 suited so I removed it, soaked it in Distress Ink, dried it off and popped

 it back in! Perfect Match!

 Well, thats enough from me for today!

Thanks for stopping by!
