Green Tara July Post Part 2

"It's the Simple Things"

Butterflies are my favourite thing.

The Green Tara Heirloom Flower comes in several different colours.

I've added some Cherry Blossoms and Turquoise and 

White Roses.

Green Tara has so many different ribbons.
Here I've used White Twisted Organza Pearl Ribbon
and Ivory Bud-n-Bow Ribbon 

 

This gorgeous Satin Edged Organza Ribbon

comes in lots of colours.

Thanks for dropping by.

I hope I've inspired you just a little.

Green Tara July Post Part 1

"Memories"

 

 

 Hi everyone - thanks for dropping by.  I've used one of my 

favourite colour combos for this layout.

 The green and purple Sakura flowers matched and complimented

my photo beautifully. I created the flower in the centre was using

Gold Purple Crushed Organza ribbon and hot glue.
I just twisted it into a circle, added a few pearls & hey presto,
a sweet little flower to add to my cluster.

Green Tara roses are always a winner with me.  Here I have used 

  White and  Lavender Roses along with Green Velvet Leaves.

Olive Velvet Ribbon and Cream Lace  add a nice little touch.

I hope I have inspired you just a little.

My Green Tara Design Team Post Part 2

 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.

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.

A Moment to Treasure

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.
