My Green Tara Design Team Post Part 2

Happy Moments Canvas

 This is my gorgeous niece Danika.  These pics were

taken at her Year 12 Formal.

In this cluster I used a 4cm Heirloom, a red and a red and white

Cherry Blossom, a white 1.5cm Rose and a 1cm Rose, a red Mini

Flower and some green Velvet Leaves, all from Green Tara
of course.

 I cut down one of the green Velvet Leaves and added a 1.5cm

red Rose to just finish off my design.

Thanks so much for dropping by.  I hope I have inspired
you just a little.

My Green Tara Design Team Post Part 1

Hello everyone this month for my Green Tara Design Team
post  I decided on a red, black and white theme. 

This beautiful red Satin Rosette is the perfect embellishment

to compliment the bride's flower in my photo. A white 4cm
Heirloom flower, a red Rose, some tiny Rosebuds and white 
Velvet Leaves make the perfect cluster.

	I love these Silk Flowers with a Swarovski Crystal and Green Tara Lace is just so gorgeous I use it a lot. Thanks so much for dropping by.  I hope I have inspired you just a little. Luv Jan xx

My Green Tara Design Team Reveal for May Part 2

Wishes Really Do Come True

Hi everyone - this is the second layout for my May reveal

over at Green Tara.

I loved this 6.5 Aster Batik Vintage Flower so much I built the

 whole layout around it.  Swarovski Crystal Flowers are so

 beautiful, they add just the right amount of bling to any page.

  I applied just a little Gesso to Lime Roses to soften the colour. 

 I've combined  three different sized Petals to make one flower

 and   used some of Green Tara's Stamens to finish it off.  

Love these stamens.

This beautiful Pearl Flourish,  more Roses and of course

Velvet Leaves .

Thanks so much for dropping by.  I hope I have inspired you

just a little.

My Green Tara Design Team Reveal

A Moment to Treasure

 Hi everyone - thanks for dropping by.

This is the first of my Green Tara Design Team layouts for May.

On this layout I've featured a yellow 6.5 Heirloom Flower and 

one of the new  5cm Azaleas.  Yellow and Lavender Roses  

and my favourite Velvet Leaves complete my cluster.

 Some more Roses and a Velvet Leaf look gorgeous in this corner.

I love Bud n Bow Ribbon, it comes in several different colours. 

 This  Cream Lace adds just a little touch of delicacy.

 

I hope I have inspired you just a little.

Guest Designer 2 Crafty Chipboard

 

Hi everyone -thanks for dropping by.  This layout is my

Guest Designer post for 2 Crafty Chipboard.

The cardstock in this  layout is the most beautiful shade of purple,

 but unfortunately in the pics it looks more blue.

  I tried photographing it several  times in different lights but this

 is the best I could do. 

I coated the word "Just be You" with Gesso, then Texture Paste,

I applied the colour by rubbing ink over the surface.

I also added a little heart from the "Nest of Hearts"pack.

 

I just love this Corner Arch.  I achieved the look I wanted

by applying Gesso, then ink, then another light coating of Gesso.

I cut the Thistle Shrub into several pieces so I could

arrange them around my cluster.  I have also treated

the tops with Gesso and Texture Paste to add a little

more body to them.  The lovely little touches of green

are pieces of the Branch With Bird.  

(I saved the bird to use on another layout).

The flowers I have used in this layout are from Green Tara.

Thanks so much for dropping by.

Simply the Best

 

Hi everyone, thanks for dropping by.

Today I have my 2 Crafty Chipboard Guest Designer layout  to

 share with you.  2 Crafty has such a great range of products 

suitable for "boy" pages.

For my background I glued some 

1" Hexagons

onto the page, then sprayed two different colours of

 Glimmer Mist over the lot. I painted the little 

Word Bubbles

with three different metallic paints applied with sponges 

to get a nice aged metal look.

The Arrows from the 

Assorted Arrows Pack

 have simply been painted with a lick of acrylic paont.  

 I then lightly highlighted the

 hexagons and the arrows with some Viva Inca Gold Paste.

 I love these little Film Strips. I think they can be used in so many 

different ways.  I have simply painted them with acrylic paint 

and highlighted them with Inca Gold Paste.

"Simply The Best"

 Another one of 2 Crafty's great titles - a coat of Gesso and black

paint and I think it looks pretty good. 

Thanks again for stopping by, I hope I have inspired you

just a little.

Green Tara Design Team April Post

 

Hi everyone, thanks for dropping by. It's my turn over at the

Green Tara Blog.

 I have used the beautiful  Mustard Damask flower as the focal 

point on this page.  I also added one  4cm Heirloom Silk and

 Organza Grey Blue flower which was the exact colour I needed. 

 

 I sprayed some white roses in order to  get the
 matching blue I needed and added some brown
roses as well.

Green Tara laces are absolutely beautiful and I've sprayed this

off white lace to add to the page for emphasis.This cute little
 Loop Trim ribbon is so delicate and pretty.

A little touch of lace and a couple of roses
added just the right finishing touch to this feature.

Trinket Box

I had so much fun decorating this little trinket box.  I started
by painting the edges then covering the box with paper.I then
added a circle of white Lace as a foundation and then simply
 built it up with flowers. 

The fabulous range of Green Tara flowers  made it all so easy.

Green Tara flowers and ribbons are so very versatile.
It's really easy to create great layouts.

Pop over to the Green Tara Blog to see what their

talented and creative Design Team has been doing.
