Lavender Haze Layout

Just a quick post today ... this is a layout I made using the new Lavender Haze Collection.

This a surprisingly good collection to work with, usually I'm not attracted to anything very pastel, but the redeeming feature for this range is that it also contains a strong set of bolder colours as well and those wonderful black grunge marks and flourish swirls that appear on many of the pages.

I do love this photo of my daughter, but I have had it sitting in my photo stash for ages as it just seemed too dark to use. But this collection was perfect for it ... a bit of black to compliment the darkness in the photo but lots of light colours to lift the photo up out of the darkness as well.

Do you have any darker girls photos that you find difficult to scrap? Well this might just be the collection you have been looking for to help you with that!

Thanks for visiting...

Cheers from Kelly-ann.

Saturday Sketch #2 March 2013

 Well this week I have used the Lavender Haze Collection for my Saturday Sketch.... this whole collection is just perfect for little girls!

The sample page for the sketch this week was ABSOLUTELY BEAUTIFUL and inspired me no end. This is the sketch that it's based on...

I mostly used a whole lot of border punches and ink on this page... the ink I used was quite a bright red one ... I always use a red ink when working with pinks as I think it frames all pink tones wonderfully.

O have also used the large stamp that came with this collection to make this flourish image...

I'm still so impressed with Kaisercraft stamps... they are so diverse and beautiful and as you can see, match the collections perfectly!

Thanks for stopping by for a look.

Cheers from Kelly-ann.
