Hi friends! Valerie Bisson here today and I’m delighted to share my project featuring Paige's Leaf Background Cut File and the beautiful Garden Shoppe collection.
For my layout I used this beautiful photo I took a few days after an icy snow storm - the snow melted and lots of leaves had fallen on the ground so the Leaf Background Cut File seemed quite appropriate. Jumping right in, I cut out the Leaf Background Cut File from white cardstock. Next I chose Paper 9 to back the cut file and also added gold and white acrylic paint splatters. Next, I hand stitched several of the leaves on the cut file in matching colors with all six strands of DMC embroidery thread. After this I placed it on top of Paper 15 which has the pretty bird print. Then I took my photo and put it right in the center of the page with a photo mat and foam adhesive to make it stand out. I embellished with the Foam Phrase Stickers, Ephemera Die Cuts, and Floral Die Cuts, all in a pleasing way to my eye. For final details I added some word phrases around the outer edge of the page cut from Paper 23 and also added a few cross stitches to each piece.
Thank you so much for stopping by and I hope I have an inspired you in some way today to use Paige's cut files and Garden Shoppe collection!
