GUEST DESIGNING AT GREEN TARA

another layout I created using the beauties from

'Firstly I want to say how much you all helped me with your love and compassion
on my last post ... it means a great deal to me to be able to share 
my pages of Mark with you . 
thank you from the bottom of my heart xoxo'
I will share some more pages from time to time, and you will see how he changed 
over his 22 years of life, and how he lived a purposeful life. 

below is my layout for GREEN TARA
starring the beautiful 'ELLA JAI'  of course !!!

'MY GIRL'


 PROCESS
I framed the photo with a compact cluster of beautiful ivory roses .. tucking copper leaves randomly around  the edge for a dramatic effect.
I dabbed some rusty hinge distress ink on a couple of the roses to create definition .

The large Organza flower stands alone as a feature and the white and blue chipboard compliments the elegance of this delish flower. I separated the bottom layer of this flower because I wanted a smaller version in this space .


Monochromatic  soft pastels hues with a kiss of color (copper leaves) always appeals to me, and I feel it compliments this photo perfectly .
I adore the way the leaves are wired  as this allows me to bend/twist/fold them which ever way I desire.
The simple background is created with a clock mask, inked with blue Versa color, machine stitching around the border and a small amount of doodling.  


other items used . 
 Prima paper/fairy Belle collection, Imaginariumdesigns chipboard, prima metal bird cage,  kraft and white cardstock Bazzill,  crafters workshop mask – clocks, Kaiser blossoms, muslin.


thanks for popping by my blog  
I Hope I have inspired you to play with your own cluster of GREEN TARA flowers.
