Did you all see Bev's great Step-by-Step Layout in this weekend's Newsletter?? Here is a copy of the information for you all to try your hand at creating this layout!!

Layout Created by Bev Watt

Products used:

Scrap Within Reach Afternoon Tea Collection - Teaberry Blend, Spiced Plum and Green Peony

Kaisercraft Self-Adhesive Rhinestones

Matching Ribbon approx 2.5cm x 32cm

Assortment of matching Green Tara Flower Petals

Trimmings Coloured Buttons

A2Z Scraplets Chipboard Script Word

Swirl/Flourish Rub-on or Stamp

Step-By Step Instructions:

Use the Teaberry Blend as your background paper.

From the spiced plum cut a piece 15cm x 23cm and stick it to your background in the vertical position 4.5cm from the bottom and 6.5cm from the right hand edge.

From the Green Peony cut a piece 26cm x 8.5cm and stick it in the horizontal position 8.5cm from the bottom and 3cm from the right hand edge.

Attach your 4x6 photo 12.5cm from the bottom and 6cm from the left hand edge.

Choose a pretty 2.5cm wide ribbon and cut a 32cm length and stick it across the page just below your photo.

Use a compass to lightly draw a circle with a 21cm diameter approx 2.5cm from left hand edge and 4cm from bottom of page.

Use Kaisercraft Rhinestones to embellish around your circle with a 1 cm spacing between each rhinestone. Rub out pencil line.

Choose an A2Z Scraplets Chipboard Script Word and colour it to suit your layout.

I pinched an idea from the lovely Ginny Fleet to colour the title by inking it in a pale colour at the top, a darker colour just below that and a darker colour at the bottom for a lovely graded colour effect ... you can use dimensional magic over the top if you want a glossy finish.

To finish off the layout apply some assorted Green Tara Flower Petals to the right side of the photo in a random stagger and add a rub-on spray or swirl behind the flowers if you wish.

Thanks everyone,

Bev
