Wedding Day

The wedding of the century ( I like to think it was..hehe)deserves a pretty page!
I had lots of fun making this LO,during our monthly scrapbooking session I go to, with a group of like minded ladies. Lots of laughs and always fun to go to. I love doing these sorts of pages as you get to rip and scrunch and distress to your hearts content. They all think I am a bit mad! I'm sure...

The Doily is cut using my cricut and a template from the Paper Lace cartridge. I smudged some brown and blue inks on to it to take away the brightness of the white card and to help it blend in more with the overlook of the page. I ran my favourite ribbon vine up and across the page, and piled the other bits and pieces on. I always seem to have trouble with the gems that are pre shaped and I see that the yellow scroll has got a bit out of control and ended way up the page. Never mind.
The blue flowers are from the prima collection ( I think) and I put little pearls on the yellow flower to help give then a bit of zing.
 I love how my little tiles turned out. I watched a video on Gabriella Pollacco's blog and made these. They are really simple and super effective and I think they  add  a little bit of class to the page. If you want to learn more take a look at Gabriella's blog. It is so inspirational and I love it http://gabriellepollacco.blogspot.co.nz/. I used Sculpey Clay which is baked for 15mins and then you paint and stamp as you wish.

The hanger is cut from the Tim Holtz "Hanging Sign" cutting template. I rubbed a bit of black distress inks on the edges to give it a bit of a distressed look
