For today's project, I went back to my roots. My love for scrapbooking & crafting all began some 20+ years ago with layouts! I started documenting photos from events that were meaningful to me up to that time & from there I slowly evolved to card making, stamping, making mini albums, incorporating different mediums such as embossing & paints...the rest is history.
I made a page with the lovely 'Timeless' collection by Authentique. What I love most about black & white collections is the the ability to add splashes of any color to make the projects 'pop'. I added splashes of red & holographic effects.
This pre-made layout is available for sale in my Etsy shop, 'The Midnight Kraft Desk'.
The large circular flourish seen behind the photos mats is cut from an acetate special texture page. The photo mats are made with both holographic & black card stock. These photo mats are for storing photos measuring up to 3" x 4" inches. For display purposes I've temporarily placed 3" x 4" inch cut apart cards from the collection on the photo mats.
The title of my page has a holographic effect as well. I've had this title in my stash for many years.
The embellishments used on this page are a combination of vines, fabric flowers, mulberry paper flowers, a mini wooden white fence, a mini bird's nest, a resin bird & a small glass bottle filled with holographic chunky glitter.
In this photo you can see the small glass bottle. The bottle is decorated with lace & black & white twine.
I've also included a large stick pin & a black & white appliqué. A large white doily further decorates the background of my page.
I've designed this page so that two 3" x 4" inch photos can slide behind all the embellishments & adhered to the photo mats.
Behind the two photo mats there's a white wax pocket. This pocket stores six cut apart cards from the collection. I included this pocket to as a place for storing journaling, thoughts, dates or more photos. This pocket can store 3" x 4" inch cards and/or photos.
